Today is the first day of Chanukah, and to honor this luminous and sacred holiday, I would like to to share with you the lyrics to a very special song-"WE ARE LIGHTS (The Chanukha Song)". It is one of my most favorite songs of the season, and I believe the poignant words-no matter your faith- speak a beautiful and universal truth...
WE ARE LIGHTS
A lamp that kept on burning
A miracle they say
But the world has kept on turning
Are there miracles today?
Everyone who lights a candle
Has a bit of ancient spark
We are miracles, lighting up the dark
We Are Lights
Lights of memory, remembering times long gone
We are glowing, growing miracles!
We are lights
We are lights shining on, and on!
A row of burning candles
Shines light upon your face
Linking you, and me, and all of us
To a far off holy place
But the blazing of the candles
Is not the only light
Look at all of us
Shining here , tonight!
We Are Lights
Lights of memory, remembering times long gone
We are glowing, growing miracles!
We are lights
We are lights, shining on, and on!
"WE ARE LIGHTS" Music by Stephen Schwartz/Lyrics by Steve Young
