hey
Blessed art Thou, O Lord our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us by Thy commandments, and commands us to kindle the Sabbath lights.


Light two candles, saying, “We light the candle of Remembrance and Observance.”

May the Sabbath-light which illumines our dwelling cause peace and happiness to shine in our home. Bless us, O God, on the Holy Sabbath, and cause Thy divine glory to shine upon us. Enlighten our darkness and guide us and all mankind, Thy children, toward truth and eternal light.

Offer your prayers
Come, let us welcome the Sabbath in joy and peace! Like a bride, radiant and joyous, comes the Sabbath. It brings blessings to our hearts; workday thoughts and cares are put aside. The brightness of the Sabbath light shines forth to tell that the divine spirit of love abides within our home. In that Light all our blessings are enriched, all our griefs and trials are softened.
