Song Lyrics:

So many years ago they tried to stop us

From Torah learning yeah they tried to rob us

And we found ourselves searching

 

For a bit of oil that would light up

And by a miracle eight days didn’t dry up

And we found ourselves yearning

 

For the light…

For what’s right

Take away the night

With the light

Gotta fight All your might

‘Cuz you can ignite

With Torah’s light

 

In the middle of a time so dark now

Winds are blowing everwhere I go now

And I find myself searching

 

There’s an ancient wisdom that I know now

Lights up inside of me though I don’t know how

And I find myself yearning

 

Chanukah is the time for the Torah’s light

Chanukah is the time to do what’s right

 

Song message: The light of Chanukah is the light of the Torah, whose eternal teachings still light up our lives to this day. The attribute of loving kindness is focused on here, with the sefer “Ahavas Chesed” of the Chofetz Chaim being the inspiration for loving acts of kindness.

Storyline: Yakov wants to help his dad get a new menorah, as their menorah is rather shabby. Fortuitously, he is helped in his mission by a kind hearted couple.
