Light one candle for the Maccabees children With thanks that their light didnt die Light one candle for the pain they endured When their right to exist was denied Light one candle for the terrible sacrifice Justice and freedom demand But light one candle for the wisdom to know When the peacemakers time is at hand Dont let the light go out Its lasted for so many years Dont let the light go out Let it shine through our love and our tears Light one candle for the strength that we need To never become our own foe And light one candle for those who are suffering Pain we learned so long ago Light one candle for all we believe in That anger not tear us apart And light one candle to find us together With peace as the song in our hearts Dont let the light go out Its lasted for so many years Dont let the light go out Let it shine through our love and our tears Dont let the light go out Its lasted for so many years Dont let the light go out Let it shine through our love and our tears What is the memory thats valued so highly That we keep it alive in that flame? Whats the commitment to those who died That we cry out theyve not died in vain? We have come this far always believing That justice would somehow prevail This is the burden, this is the promise This is why we will not fail Dont let the light go out Its lasted for so many years Dont let the light go out Let it shine through our love and our tears Dont let the light go out Its lasted for so many years Dont let the light go out Let it shine through our love and our tears Dont let the light go out Dont let the light go out Dont let the light go out
