Thought

True temple blood and flesh

If not honoured will enmesh

In wars that spill these things

Usurping thrones - crowning kings

Light a flame spread as call

Peace, strength and warmth for all

Thanks and praise offered thus

In Hebrew verse and sung chorus

Each candle on menorah’s frame

Adds to the lighter’s inner flame

Rededicating cold wintertime

Eight days toward one light divine

Prayer

O Lord all praise and thanks for Thy glory that is hidden from my eyes when I act out of ownership and agency. Destroy the dark of my ignorance and grant that I may light a nightly flame of rededication and renewal so that I may ever gaze on Thy loving face and form.
