Shalom Al Ha’mayim: Peace on the Water, Hebrew Prayer
The day is over, and the lyric answers it simply: "Hayom avar, v'ani b'yadecha" means the day is gone and I am in Your hands.
Then comes an image of stillness: "Shalom al ha'mayim, shalom al ha'lev," peace on the water, peace on the heart. The words invite the listener to picture a calm surface and let the heart grow quiet with it.
The clip comes from "Peace Through the Night." The full song is linked below, for a longer rest.
Lyrics
Hayom avar, v'ani b'yadecha
Shalom al ha'mayim, shalom al ha'lev
