Mood: Depends on which way the wind is blowing

WGBH in Boston broadcast a lovely program celebrating the eighth night.

A chantor (?) sang a song that the announcer said was titled, "Rock of Ages".

It was a lovely, beautiful rendition that brought me to tears.

If you see it on youtube maybe you can post it, sounds like it is worth hearing to me.

What you heard was "Ma'oz Tzur", which is Hebrew for "Rock of Ages". I'll let Fran explain it:
