No Jew (Will Be Left Behind) is a song by American Jewish singer Avraham Fried, released in 1981 as part of his album No Jew Will Be Left Behind. The song was composed by Yossi Green, with lyrics by Pnina Chaneles, and produced by Sheya Mendlowitz.

The song is a ballad that expresses the hope and longing for the future redemption of the Jewish people, when they will return to their homeland and witness the rebuilding of the holy temple in Jerusalem. The song has been praised for its emotional and inspirational message, and has become a popular anthem for Jewish unity and faith.

The song is based on the biblical promise that God will gather the exiled Jews from all over the world and bring them back to their land. The song reflects the belief that no Jew will be left behind, regardless of their level of observance or affiliation, and that every Jew has a role to play in hastening the arrival of Moshiach.

Lyrics

There are days I wonder and I dream

About a time when everything's grand

Home in the land we have awaited

And believe for so long


Close your eyes imagine

As we gaze with awe and pride

Together we behold true is the gold

Of Yerushalayim Ir Hakodesh

Shining high and strong


Chorus:

And no Jew will be left behind

No tears will be left to be cried

No power or pain will be send us back again

We are home and forever this time

And standing proud as we pray

As ever we lived for that day

When Golus will be but a distant memory

And no Jew will be left behind


Though the days seem empty

We can fill them up with Mitzvos

Knowing that each deed is all will need

To bring the loneliness of Golus to it's end


There is none too lowly or too lost

To lend a hand together we try

Look at the sky and you will see a

Bais Hamikdash burning

Waiting to descend.

(Chorus)
