| Hazzan Howard K. Glantz | (to the tune of Jingle Bells)
Dashing through Shushan
On a horse that is the king's
Wearing royal robes
With gold and diamond rings
Haman's leading you
Angry as can be
His plan was not to honor you
but to hang you from a tree!
Refrain:
Oh! Mordechai, Mordechai!
The king has honored you
Wear his crown, do up the town
Do what you want to do!
(Repeat)
Esther told the King
About Haman’s evil plot
She thought that she might die
The king said that she would not
He sent out a decree
The plot was not to be
We honor Esther and Mordechai
For their bravery!! Oh...
(Refrain)

In a place you may have heard about, in Shushan as you know
An evil man named Haman said, “The Jews have got to go.”
Now Esther was the Jewish queen and she knew not where to turn,
Til Mordechai her cousin said, “There is something you must learn. Oh Esther....”
Chorus:
YOU CAN CHANGE THE WORLD,
YOU CAN MAKE THE WORLD COMPLETE.
TAKE THE PRIDE YOU FEEL INSIDE
AND NEVER ACCEPT DEFEAT.
There’s an evil plot against us now, a list of cruel demands.
And Esther, only you can help, our fate is in your hands.
She said, “Cousin,do you really think, that a difference I can make?
A Jewish girl before the king, it could be a big mistake.” Oh Esther....”
(Chorus)
So Esther went before the king, and though she was afraid.
She stood up proud and spoke out loud. And her people all were saved.
So now we read the Megillah, at Purim time each year
And learn how God can give us strength, to overcome our fears: Oh Esther....”
(Chorus)
