The Song of Miracles

Top Talents in Jewish Music Donate New Song for RCCS! “I Believe in Miracles”; A Song to Help Cancer Patients

Avrohom Fried, Yossi Green, Yisroel Lamm, and other stars in the world of Jewish music have combined their unique talents to produce a theme song to benefit the many hundreds of cancer patients being assisted by RCCS, the Rofeh Cholim Cancer Society.

The theme, “I Believe in Miracles”, came as a result of so many former cancer patients expressing themselves as recipients of a miracle, funded and facilitated by RCCS. The recurrent theme of the song is a song of hope and a song of strength.

In fact, many of the great Rishonim have written how one’s acts of kindness can result in the creation of a “miracle”. We are taught time and time again never to give up hope, even if a “sharp sword is resting upon one’s throat”. And that is the story of the song, and that is the story of RCCS.

Yossi Green, one of the leading composers in contemporary Jewish music was inspired to compose the song as a result of his first-hand knowledge of the accomplishments of RCCS. When Avrohom Fried (arguably the leading singer in the Chassidic music field, today) heard the song, he readily agreed to take part in this Chessed undertaking. And for those who know Yisroel Lamm, it is easy to guess that he immediately agreed to arrange and conduct the music.

The result is obvious to anyone with a discerning ear. According to Yossi Green, this song may go down as one of the greatest in Avrohom Fried’s longstanding history of great hits.

Download Avraham Fried's family zemiros acapella!

(via LifeofRubin)

"That’s right, the much talked about “Friedman Family” Zemiros CD was made last year, but not sold to the public.
Now they have released it to a very important organization, Yad L’shliach.
If you’d like to download the album for free, visit this website, now.
You do have to make a donation of $18 dollars to the organization, but it’s so little considering what Shluchim do for us around the world.
It happens to be quite an amazing CD.
Yad L’shliach is an organization dedicated to easing the personal financial burdens of Shluchim world-wide."

“My Father’s Zemiros is a collection of Zemiros that were song at the Friedman’s Shabbos table.
Sung, a capella - Perfect for Sefirah listening - by Avraham (Fried) accompanied by his brothers and nephews, this heartwarming collection will entertain and move you as you listen to the Zemiros of the late Reb Yaakov Moshe Friedman, of blessed memory.
Now, for a donation to Yad L’shliach you can download this special album, available exclusively on the Yad L'Shliach website."
