LIGHT UP THE NIGHTS- Miami Boys Choir- Composed By Yerachmiel Begun- 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!

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 answer to one name,
Our Heritage the same,
The power of the flame,
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!)
Let’s 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 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
Our nation as a whole,
Can reach a common goal
With the fire in our souls,
the light of Chanukah!

We answer to one name,
Our Heritage the same,
The power of the flame,
The light of Chanukah.
