The Ashrei (Hebrew: אַשְׁרֵי יוֹשְׁבֵי בֵיתֶךָ, עוֹד יְהַלְלוּךָ סֶּלָה, Ashrei yoshvei veitecha, od y’hallelucha, selah!; English: Happy are they who dwell in Your house; they will praise You, always!) is a prayer that is recited at least three times daily in Jewish prayers, twice during Shacharit and once during Mincha. The prayer is composed primarily of Psalm 145 in its entirety, with a verse each from Psalms 84 and 144 added to the beginning, and a verse from Psalm 115 added to the end. The first two verses that are added both start with the Hebrew word "ashrei" (translating to "happy" or "praiseworthy" or "fortunate"), hence the prayer's name.
Ashrei is recited three times daily during the full course of Jewish prayers, in accordance with the Talmud, citing Rabbi Eleazar ben Abina of the 4th century, which says that one who thoughtfully recites Ashrei three times daily, particularly the verse פותח, is guaranteed a place in Olam Haba (the World to Come). It is for this reason that not only is Ashrei recited these three times, but many of its verses occur throughout liturgy.

Ashrei (by Rabbi Shefa Gold) at the CD launch for Aviva Chernick's album, When I Arrived You Were Already There. http://avivachernick.com http://rabbishefagold.com http://joelschwartz.ca/ www.sundarmusic.com/ www.maryemtollar.com In this sacred and spacious melody, Rabbi Shefa has captured the depth of meaning in the concept of "dwelling within." Only since playing with this melody, have I come to understand this passage, which I chanted my whole life. When we are dwelling deeply within, it is there where we encounter the Divine who was, in fact, there all along. Rabbi Shefa's melodies of prayer continue to be a source of deep comfort and inspiration to so many. Ashrei yoshvei veitecha od y'halelucha. When we dwell within, we hear ourselves praising all along. Performers: Aviva Cherni...

Truth Hurts x 4
I got reason to believe that you've been fooling around
And the way you feel the passion if the, the things you did
It don't matter to me
For what it's worth just don't lie to me
Coz that aint what I need right now
Baby, everything we built on trust, you're tearing it down
Coz I know the truth hurts
[CHORUS]
Truth Hurts
Tell me the truth now
Whatcha been doing and who you been doing it with
Truth Hurts
Where you been going, how you been puttin' your thing down
Truth Hurts
Whatever you was workin', I hope that it was worth it baby
Truth Hurts
I got reason to believe that you've been fooling around
Girl I'm really tryin' hard, I wanna stay
I wanna move on and put it in the past
Coz you claim that you aint doin' nothin'
Must be my insecurity
That's got the best of me right now
What I know I can't hold inside of me is gon' drive me insane, coz I know, truth hurts
[CHORUS]
Truth Hurts
Tell me the truth now
Whatcha been doing and who you been doing it with
Truth Hurts
Where you been going, how you been puttin' your thing down
Truth Hurts
Whatever you was workin', I hope that it was worth it baby
Truth Hurts
I got reason to believe that you've been fooling around
ba, ba, ba, ba, ba...ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba. (sing it with me now)
ba, ba, ba, ba, ba...ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.
Truth Hurts
I got to see you babe
I been keepin' from you baby
Coz I know that you're
gonna tear up the place, punch me in the face, pull the I quits out, think you need to sit down.
I've been blaming you, and I'm the one that's doing wrong, I'ma go on
A guilty conscience is the real reason I wrote this song...
[CHORUS]
