Title: The Burnt Offering of Each Sabbath Shabbos: We Do Things Differently The Sar Shalom of Belz had a student Who would regularly travel to Pressburg While there, he'd visit the Chasam Sofer Who'd always ask this student to share A few of his Rebbe's novel Torah insights The Chasam Sofer would write them down The ideas that he especially enjoyed In Parshas Lech Lecha, a lesson profound And they could not dwell together, it said During the week, they could tolerate But when Shabbos arrived, the difference was clear Avraham and Lot had to separate Avraham would host a beautiful meal Singing Hashem's praises, faith and more Lot's household joked and talked inappropriately On Shabbos, they couldn't be as before Every Yid must be careful and aware Shabbos is not just another day Celebrate with your son and daughter Differently than the servants in your way Guidance from Maimonides, so wise Rejoice on Shabbos and Yom Tov days Mirth and levity are not true joy Serve the Creator with happy praise The simcha on Shabbos must be spiritual Delight in the Lord, He'll give what you seek As in the parable of the captured prince Rejoice in His holiness, week by week True happiness, a spiritual renewal Beginning the week with a holy glow If Shabbos was observed in the proper way The joy and simcha will continue to grow Shabbos is the source of true happiness All who rejoice will merit great simcha Celebrate with Torah, davening, and song And feel the joy in every area of life
