Blessings The Candles ~ The First Blessing Praised are You,  Our God, Ruler of the universe,  Who made us holy through  Your commandments  And commanded us  To kindle the Hanukkah lights.  The Second Blessing  Praised are You, Our God, Ruler of the universe, Who performed wondrous deeds  For our ancestors In those ancient days At this season.  The Third Blessing  Praised are You,  Our God, Ruler of the universe,  Who has given us life and  Sustained us and Enabled us to  Reach this season. ~ Happy Hanukkah ~
