Welcoming Shabbat with "Tov Lehodot Lashem" (Mizmor Shir) by Efrat Dansker

Tov Lehodot Lashem is the opening verse of Psalm 92, Mizmor Shir L'Yom HaShabbat. The song is part of the Kabbalat Shabbat service. It's sung here by Efrat Dansker.

The Hebrew text of the first two verses of this liturgical poem is:

 טוֹב לְהֹדוֹת לַיהוָה
וּלְזַמֵּר לְשִׁמְךָ עֶלְיוֹן
לְהַגִּיד בַּבֹּקֶר חַסְדֶּךָ וֶאֱמוּנָתְךָ בַּלֵּילוֹת

The English translation is:
It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto Thy name, O Most High; 

To declare Thy lovingkin​dness in the morning, and Thy faithfuln​ess in the night seasons.

Enjoy, and Shabbat shalom!
