The early morning prayers, birchot hashahar, give us an opportunity to warm up our voices and spirit. They begin with a series of b’rachot (blessings) that trace the process of awakening. These b’rachot thank God for the gift of our bodies and souls; they describe God as providing for our physical needs of sight, strength, clothing, etc. It is no accident that the first and last thing Jews do every day is pray. What could be more appropriate in these moments of quiet reflection than to thank God for the myriad blessings of each day. - Please rise - Ba-ruch a-tah Ah-do-nai, E-lo-hey-nu me-lech ha-oh-lam, ,ml¨ Frd¨ Kl¤ n«¤ Epid«¥Ÿl`¡ dF¨di§ dY¨ `© KExA¨ a-sher na-tan la-sech-vi vi-na, ,dp¨ia¦ ie¦k§ V¤ l© oz© p¨ xW¤ `£ l'hav-chin bein yom u-vein lai-la. :dl¨ i§l«¨ oia¥ E mFi oiA¥ oig¦ a§ d© l§ We bless You Ah-do-nai, eternal God of the universe, who gave the heart for understanding the difference between day and night.

VERSES OF PRAISE SECTION (PESUKEI DEZIMRAH) The Verses of Praise section was initiated as an optional part of the prayer service and was recited privately. Today, these verses are recited every day, in private and public prayer. The Verses of Praise consist of a series of psalms, preceded and followed by a special blessing. The recitation of these psalms is intended to prepare and uplift the soul, purify our thoughts, and make us clear in our approach to God and prayer. Following the Verses of Praise, the Kaddish is recited to indicate that a subsection of the prayer service has now concluded, and we continue with a major section of the prayer service, namely, the blessings of the Sh'ma and the Sh'ma prayer.
