Words and Lyrics by Lisa Baydush, www.LisaBaydush.com
Note From The Songwriter: I like to teach the sign language for todah: fingers extend from chin forward and downward. You can also substitute ‘Thanksgiving’ for ‘Shabbat.’ When I use this at Tot Shabbat services, I ask the children if there’s something for which they are thankful that they’d like to include in the song.
Lyrics:
Chorus:
On Shabbat, we give thanks,
We give thanks to God;
On Shabbat, we give thanks,
In Hebrew, we say ‘todah!’
For our families, todah!
For this food, todah!
For our friends, todah!
For our homes, todah! (chorus)
