LGight one candle for the Maccabee children
WGith thanks their light didn't dEmie.
LCight one candle for the pain they endured
WChen their right to exist was de-nB7ied.
LEmight one candle for the terrible sacrifice
JCustice and freedom dAemand.
LGight one cEmandle for the wGisdom to kEmnow
when the pCeace-makers tDime is at hGand. B7 
DEon't let the lAmight go out.
It's lDasted for so many yGears.B7 
DEon't let the liAmght go out.
Let it sDhine through our love and our tGearsB7.

AGnd what is the memory that's valued so highly
That we keep it alive in the fEmlame?
WChat's the commitment for those who have died
We cry out they have not died in vB7ain?
