CHORUS: Light up the nights! The candles burning bright On the festival of lights Here on Chanukah Our nation as a whole Can reach a common goal With the fire in our souls The light of Chanukah! We face a daunting task One that we cannot mask A danger just as real as it was then (Light up the nights!) Lets stand with open eyes To hear our brothers cries And courage now is needed once again (Light up the nights!) Let's carry our banner with pride For this freedom how long we have waited With the words of the Torah our guide If we stand as one, it can't be undone Just think of the wonders that can be created! 1, 2, 3, Fo-ur, 5, 6, 7, 8! Chorus Light up the nights! The candles burning bright On the festival of lights Here on Chanukah We answer to one name Our Heritage the same The power of the flame The light of Chanukah
