Barenaked Ladies - Hanukkah Blessings lyrics

How Lucky are we that we have lights so we can see Although the day is done What a miracle that a spark lifts these candles out of the dark Every evening, one by one Until the end of hanukkah, of hanukkah. With the jingle bells and the toys And the TV shows and noise It's easy to forget At the end of the day Our whole family will say These words for Hanukkah Baruch atah Adonai, eloheinu melech ha'olam, asher kid'shanu B'mitz'votav v'tzivanu l'hadlik ner shel Hanukkah. Light the candles for Hanukkah, for Hanukkah We remember how Maccabees Fought so all of us could be free And so we celebrate on this festival of the lights There's a joyful time every night But we illuminate the candles of Hanukkah, of Hanukkah Baruch atah Adonai Eloheinu melech ha'olam she'asa niseem La'avoteinu bayamim haheim baz'man hazeh. Hanukkah... Hanukkah...
