What song comes to mind when you hear the word "illumination"?
Trying to compile a list of songs to fit the theme. Either English or Hebrew - both are great.
Thanks in advance!!

I only remember the chorus, maybe someone can name the source

All it takes is one small candle
one small flickering, shining candle
that is all takes to know your not alone

when you put our hearts and minds together
everyone together
a thousand glowing candles burning bright
then you become a ? that can't be measured
and together you can drive away the night...

brings back memories of camp kumzitz's (which I hated by the way, I'm not the sit and sing type of gal!)

I have that on small candle song notated somewhere in my files, if you need.

Torah orah
Or zarua latzaddik
May there always be sunshine
Lots of Chanukah stuff

"Lift up your candle" from Miami Boys Choir

"Me-at ohr doche harbeh choshech" Avraham Fried

Yehuda Green has a song "It's never too late" with the words candle and light.

"As long as there's light
You'll see through the night
You'll see through the night

....
As long as the candle's still burning..."

Don't remember the rest.

Then there's "kol zman shehaner dolek".

two songs from the musical next to normal came to mind, "A Light in the Dark" and "Light"

also, "Will You Light My Candle?" from Rent

Elton John's "Candle in the Wind"

"Candle on the Water" from some Disney production, can't remember which

I also have a bunch of random songs with the word "light" in the titles on my iTunes, but I haven't listened to them recently so not sure what it's about...
