Candle-Lighting

Say these words as you light two candles.

Baruch Atah Adonai Eloheinu Melech ha-olam, asher kid-shanu b'mitz-vo-tav, v'tzi-vanu l'hadlik neir shel yom tov.

In praising God we say that all life is sacred. In kindling festive lights, we preserve life's sanctity. With every holy light we kindle, the world is brightened to a higher harmony. We praise You, Adonai, majestic Sovereign of all Life, Who hallows our lives with commandments and bids us kindle festive holy light.
