Let's Dance the Hora
~ As the Dreidels Spin ~
Game, set and match
Here comes a fresh batch
of potato latkes, as the dreidels spin
Up comes a gimmel -- You win
Maccabees mean Victory
so many menorahs to see
Let's dance the hora and sing a song
It's Chanukah time ~ we all get along...

Battle Cry
"Who is like unto You, O Lord?"
The Maccabees' battle cry
For the sake of God
They were willing to die
Their holiday's name is Chanukah
Which is translated as 'dedication'
The Temple's Lamp's restoration
with a cruse of pure olive oil
celebrated by lsrael's nation
No marches or military celebrations
~ Light is what ignites Jewish education...

To Make God Happy
Not all about a fancy tree
or menorah made of gold
Though holidays be times of joy
there's a story to be told
Maccabees fought the mighty Greeks
to uphold Israel's proud tradition
Christians fete the Savior's birth
Prince of Peace and their religion
And with each story lessons to be learned
without regard to fame or fortunes earned
Instead they teach that God's made happy
when the poor and lonely are not spurned...
