The first part of this melody sounds almost exactly like "The Place Where I Belong" (the version I have and the only version I have heard is by Deborah Katchko-Zimmerman from her Jewish Soul CD), but the second part (starting at bar 17 of the actual melody where it goes from the relative minor to the tonic) goes off in a different direction.
I don't know which melody borrowed from the other, but a Google search on Deborah Katchko-Zimmerman will turn up contact information if you're interested.
