Debbie Friedman was a song writer and cantor. This is one of the songs she wrote for Passover.
| [Chorus] |
| And the women dancing with their timbrels |
| Followed Miriam as she sang her song |
| Sing a song to the One whom we've exalted |
| Miriam and the women danced and danced the whole night long |
| [Verse 1] |
| And Miriam was a weaver of unique variety |
| The tapestry she wove was one which sang our history |
| With every strand and every thread she crafted her delight |
| A woman touched with spirit, she dances toward the light |
| [Chorus] |
| And the women dancing with their timbrels |
| Followed Miriam as she sang her song |
| Sing a song to the One whom we've exalted |
| Miriam and the women danced and danced the whole night long |
| [Verse 2] |
| When Miriam stood upon the shores and gazed across the sea |
| The wonder of this miracle she soon came to believe |
| Whoever thought the sea would part with an outstretched hand |
| And we would pass to freedom and march to the promised land |
| [Chorus] |
| And the women dancing with their timbrels |
| Followed Miriam as she sang her song |
| Sing a song to the One whom we've exalted |
| Miriam and the women danced and danced the whole night long |
| [Verse 3] |
| And Miriam the prophet took her timbrel in her hand |
| And all the women followed her just as she had planned |
| And Miriam raised her voice in song, she sang with praise and might |
| We've just lived through a miracle, we're going to dance tonight |
| [Chorus] |
| And the women dancing with their timbrels |
| Followed Miriam as she sang her song |
| Sing a song to the One whom we've exalted |
| Miriam and the women danced and danced the whole night long |
| And the women dancing with their timbrels |
| Followed Miriam as she sang her song |
| Sing a song to the One whom we've exalted |
| Miriam and the women danced and danced the whole night long |
