In the window where you can send your glow
From my menorah on newly fallen snow.
I will set you one little candle,
On this the first night of Chanukkah.

In the window where you can send your glow
from my menorah on newly fallen snow.
I will set you two little candles, etc.

Not by might and not by power;
But by spirit alone,
Shall we all live in peace.
Not by might and not by power;
But by spirit alone,
Shall we all live in peace.

The children sing; the children dream;
But their tears may fall,
And you ’11 hear their call And another song will rise;
Another song will rise,
Another song will rise.

Not by might and not by power;
But by spirit alone,
Shall we all live in peace.
Not by might; not by power;
Shalom.

I have a little dreydl,
I made it out of clay;
And when it’s dry and ready
Then dreydl I shall play.

O dreydl, dreydl, dreydl,
made it out of clay;
O dreydl, dreydl, dreydl,
Now dreydl I shall play.

It has a lovely body,
With leg so short and thin,
And when it is all tired.
It drops and then I win.

My dreydl’s always playful,
It loves to dance and spin.
A happy game of dreydl,
Come play, now let’s begin.

O Chanukkah, O Chanukkah a festival of joy,
A holiday, a jolly day for every girl and boy.
Spin the whirling dreydl all week long.
Tell the ageold story sing a happy song.
And while we are singing
The candles are burning low.
One for each night, they shed a sweet light,
To remind us of days long ago.
One for each night, they shed a sweet light,
To remind us of days long ago.

Dreydl spin, dance and turn!
Chanukkah’s glad lights we’ll bum.
Chanukkah’s glad lights we’ll bum,
Dreydl spin and dance and turn!

Eight great days for every few;
Gifts for me and gifts for you;
Gifts for Mommy, Daddy too;
Eight great days for every few.

Rock of Ages, let our song
Praise Thy saving power;
Thou amidst the raging foes,
Wast our shelt ‘ring tower.
Furious, they assailed us,
But Thine arm availed us,
And The word . . .
Broke their sword . . .
When our own strength failed us.

Light the candles watch them glow
Spin a dreidle ’til it slows
Eat a latke ev’ry night
For Judah and the boys, the Maccabees.
They made this day for you and me.
Chanukkuh the time is here
Holiday and all good cheer.
Hug a loved one you hold dear
It’s Chanukah tonight Chanukah tonight
Chanukah tonight.

Praise God for this miracle
And the brave Maccabee,
Hanukkah ‘s story retell
That all men should be free.
