Track # 6 from Good Choices, Volume 2
Inspiration Text:
"What is hateful to yourself, do not do to your fellow man. That is the whole Torah; the rest is just commentary. Go and study it." (Talmud Shabbat 31a)
Lyrics:
A Rabbi named Hillel who was smart and kind
Gave us a rule to keep in our minds
This rule is so important, I want you to know
And think about it as you make choices today and as you grow
CHORUS
Treat other people how you want them to treat you
This rule is golden, this rule is true
Don't to do others something that would make you feel bad
Think about other’s feelings, no matter if you’re happy or mad
Sometimes it might happen, that someone is not nice to you
They take your turn or use their hands, you know what to do
Think of Rabbi Hillel and make a better choice
teach that person this lesson, just use your voice
CHORUS
Rabbi Hillel told us one more thing after he shared his rule
He said to go and study, so learn at home and school
Treat other people nicely, and study every day
You’ll grow up smart kind and happy, living in Hillel’s way
CHORUS
