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 everywhere 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.
