Lyrics:
Verse:
Hear the cry to battle
We are Tzivot Hashem
Each soldier’s most important
To make this milchama end
We’ll come from all directions
Strike in different ways
Let’s Strengthen our connection
And Tighten up our faith
Chorus:
Every Jew is in the army
With our holy chayalim
We’ll protect them with our mitzvos
Hashem’s gonna help us win
(Yeah) Every Jew is in the army
Everyone is part of the fight
Every mitzvah makes a difference
Darkness turns to light
Verse:
Lighting shabbos candles
Donning tefillin
Afixing a mezuza
Torah and tehillim
We’ll topple evil with kindness
Soon see a brighter day
Turn galus into geulah
With Moshiach on his way!
Chorus:
Every Jew is in the army
With our holy chayalim
We’ll protect them with our mitzvos
Hashem is gonna help us win
(Yeah) Every Jew is in the army
Everyone is part of the fight
Our mitzvos keep our existence
Oh Am Yisroel Chai!
Bridge:
Yaalah Chayalim!
Tanichu Tefillen
Tegidu Tehillim
Tilmidu Torah
Titnu LetZedakah
Tatliku Neirot Shabbat
Tosifu BeAhava
Am Yisroel Chai…
Chorus:
Every Jew is in the army
With our holy chayalim
We protect them with our mitzvos
Hashem’s will surely help us win

Don’t worry it’ll be alright
