The Shabbos Candles

Shabbos - True Happiness

As I gaze unto the light,
Of the שבת Candles.
I see them slowly flickering.
As I look deep inside them,
I see the most wondrous things!

I see you,
Gazing, smiling, contently on me!
I see a world of truth and peace.
I see myself surrounded by friends and family.
I see the most wondrous things!

I see the גאולה,
It seems so very near.
I see the Rebbe,
Smiling upon me!
Oh’ I do see the most wondrous things!

As I bathe,
In the warm glow,
Of the light;
I feel so happy.
And I gaze upon my friends,
And smile.

I feel like a million,
On this Friday night!
Nothing can change it,
Because I have my light!

And then,
When they flicker out;
I do realize:
I don’t physically need them,
As long as they are inside of me,
Their message will last for eternity!!

It is then that I smile,
And laugh inside.
As I realize:
How lucky I am!

I have people who love me,
And want me only to grow.
And that’s when I get the courage,
To try again.

As I bathe,
In the warm glow,
Of the light;
I feel so happy.
And I gaze upon my friends
And smile.

I feel like a million,
On this Friday night!
Nothing can change it,
Because I have my light!

It is when I gaze unto my שבת lights,
That I do feel and see the most wondrous things!!
And they do last forever, forever and eternity!!
It’s MY שבת lights!!!
Yes, it is MY, My שבת lights!!!
