This is one of those songs that you just know will be a hit Jewish song when you listen. It’s so good. So upbeat. And so inspiring!
This Hit Jewish Song Will Have You Dancing Right Away
Many Jews have gotten comfortable living in other lands throughout the world. They may have forgotten where their true home is. Benny Friedman just reminded them with this song, “Homeward Bound.” There is something incredible about this song. The lyrics are perfect. The tune is so upbeat. And you get this positive feeling when listening. How much better can it get?
It almost feels like Jewish country music. Except it’s even better because it’s about G-d’s holy land! Israel is home to the Jewish people. And when that can be conveyed in a song like this, it’s really beautiful. If someone is just told, “Israel is your home,” they might not internalize the message. But this song really does something to the soul. It awakens it…
Maybe some Jews really cannot move to Israel yet for specific reasons. But everyone can make one step toward coming home. Everyone can do something to remind themselves where their real home is and where their final destination should be. Maybe for some, it will just be listening to this song everyday to remind themselves that they really should be “Homeward bound…”
