But I'm glad it is in English. The song is inviting those who want to come into their Hebrew roots with a common knowledge between those who speak it, referencing it by Avraham, Yahshuah, Mary Magd. Is not Aramaic ancient Hebrew? "the whole world will know one language" comes from Tz'fanyah/Zep.3:9. Great song.
