Family Parshah
Song for Parshat Bamidbar I

Lyrics:

The midbar was where Hashem did choose
To give the Torah to the Jews
The desert was a lonely, empty place
There were many hardships for the Jews to face

They didn’t know how long they would have to stay
But the word of Hashem they obeyed
There was no food or water, but there were wild beasts
Yet their love and trust in Hashem never ceased

בשלשה דברים נתנה התורה באש במים ובמדבר
Through fire and water and desert so vast
These tests have made the Torah last

Avraham was tested by fire at the start
At the Yam Suf the waters split apart
Just as sand in the desert has no end
On Torah learning our lives depends

בשלשה דברים נתנה התורה באש במים ובמדבר
Through fire and water and desert so vast
These tests have made our Torah last

Lyrics - most of them!
The midbar was where Hashem did choose
To give the Torah to the Jews,
The desert was a lonely, empty place
There were many hardships for the Jews to face.

They didn’t know how long they would have to stay
But the word of Hashem they obeyed,
There was no food or water, but there were wild beasts
Yet their love and trust in Hashem never ceased

בשלשה דברים נתנה התורה באש במים ובמדבר
Through fire and water and desert so vast
??? the Torah last.

Our road was tested by fire at the start
At the Yam Suf the waters split apart,
Just as sand in the desert has no end
On Torah learning our life depends.

בשלשה דברים נתנה התורה באש במים ובמדבר
Through fire and water and desert so vast
??? the Torah last.

Song for Parshat Bamidbar I - Lyrics
This is such a beautiful song, although the lyrics are hard to make out. I would truly appreciate it if someone does provide the lyrics for this song.
