Lyrics
HAPPY HANUKKAH
(Chorus)
Happy happy happy - happy Chanukah (2x)
A festival of lights that shine shine shine
Reflecting hope for all mankind
If we love each other like you love us
If we hold each other like you hold us
Peace on earth, all is healed
And the glory is revealed
Snow is falling on Jerusalem
Sun is setting on the mountain
The time has come to light the flames
Of blessings and vision in the darkness
Chorus
Come together, make a family
Light the Menorah singing of our history
Reminding us of the eternal light
That signifies love over all
Chorus
(Bridge)
Light the candles, spin the dreidel
Eat some latkes at the table
Feel the love and feel the joy and
We're so happy, Happy happy Chanukah
Chorus
