Yaakov Wasilewicz – Abba

2020 was a very difficult and challenging year for all of us. It was this year, after experiencing so many hardships that I spoke to Hashem. I remember closing my eyes and pouring out my heart in a conversation that I had with Him. What then came out from my mouth were these very words of this song. While speaking to Him a melody came down to me as well.

What you are about to hear is not just a song… It is my very personal prayer which I wrote in a very dark time in which I found myself at that time. This very prayer helped me stay strong and positive. Because I knew that in this world I will never understand why hardships have to happen. Instead I decided in that very dark moment to remind myself and focus on all the good things that Hashem did for me until now. Remembering all those good things made me realize how much I love Hashem. It made me realize that I am His child and He is my Father (Abba). And because He is my Father I love Him, no matter what happens…

We all face all kinds of hardships all the time. What helps us to move on is Emunah, the trust and the belief that everything that our Father, our Abba does, is for the good.

I hope and pray that this song will help us all stay strong and positive in these very difficult and challenging times.

Lyrics:

אַבָּא, אַבָּא, אני אוהב אותך
אַבָּא, אַבָּא, אני אוהב אותך
אַבָּא, אַבָּא, יש לי אמונה
שהכל אתה עושה, אתה עושה לטובה

אפילו בזמן שהכל נראה רַע
אני מאמין באמונה שלמה
אני מאמין באמונה שלמה
שהכל, שהכל לטובה

Translation:

Father, Father I love you
Father, Father I love you
Father, Father I believe
That everything you do
You do only for the good.

Even when everything looks bad
I truly believe
I truly believe
That everything is for the good.
