Sow in Tears, Reap in Joy by Debbie Friedman: A Duet

In these words from Psalm 126, the psalmist comforts us with the idea that the labor of weeping leads to the harvest of joy, and it is the work of mourning that helps us move forward.
Drawing this song from our June concert of Debbie Friedman’s music, the largest in-person gathering at Park Avenue Synagogue since 2019, I hope this duet inspires you, even as we recall the destruction of the temple on Tisha b’Av.
May we return to Jerusalem, in person or in our hearts.
Wishing you a Shabbat Shalom.
Featuring: Cantors Azi Schwartz & Mira Davis
Producer: Eli Grunfeld
Music Director: David Enlow
AV: Oscar Acevedo, Erik Van Batavia, Russell Miller

My mother had a very difficult surgery yesterday to know what she has (the doctor says her lessions saw at the tomography have high compatibility with lung cancer, but we have to wait 30 days until we have the results) I cannot imagine my life without her, and each time I think of that I burst into tears. Lately, I' m desperately looking for some comfort, some cheer up words, but I couldn´t find any of them until I saw this beautiful video. I really hope to reap in joy, I really hope my mother gets well and can be back the strong woman she used to be. I really long for that day to say I can reap with joy 💔❤

Very inspiring and comforting.
The Lord of the harvest has counted all the tears.
Even those who could no longer weep....
