Light up the Nights
| The scene was set back when |
| A group of fearless men |
| Stood up for their beliefs |
| And risked their lives |
| They acted with one voice |
| And firmly made a choice |
| This nation be ensured |
| That it survive |
| Their prayers were answered each day |
| Their minds fixed on their destination |
| With victory they made their way |
| No longer deprived |
| At last they arrived |
| To a miracle lasting for all generations! |
| 1, 2, 3, Fo-ur, 5, 6, 7, 8! |
| 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! |
| That it survive |
| 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 |
