Note from the songwriter: This song works very nicely at the start of a Tot Shabbat service. After a few opening songs, our voices are warmed up; now it’s time to warm up our bodies. It’s a nice segue to the Bar’chu, when we bend our berkayim as part of the prayer
Lyrics:
Shake, shake, shake your yadayim (3x)
Let’s get ready to pray!
Stretch to the shamayim… (sky)
Bend your berkayim… (knees)
Touch your raglayim… (feet)
Shake out your guf… (body) now we’re ready to pray!
