Jesus Had a Dreidel  		CCLI# 7057157
V1/C/V2/B/V3/C

Verse 1
Jesus and his family celebrated Hanukkah
Jewish customs for the Feast of Dedication
Synagogues and prayer shawls and a yarmulke
Dreidels and menorahs, applesauce on fried latkes

CHORUS
Jesus had a dreidel the Hebrew game was played
Hanukkah the Feast of Lights a miracle displayed
Somehow as a Christian I forgo Jewish traditions
So I will get a dreidel and I’ll play on Christmas Day

Verse 2
Menorah lights commemorate oil lasting for eight days 
Christmas trees are twinkling as Christians celebrate
Judaism prophecy foretelling of the Savior 
Baby boy of Bethlehem from the line of David 

BRIDGE
May Christians remember on this Christmas Day
The infant born in Israel and for His nation pray
Son of God King of Kings called Emanuel
Passover Lamb Risen Lord Christ Child with a dreidel 

Verse 3
Recall those traditions as we approach Easter 
Maundy Thursday was the Seder for the Passover
Intertwined bread and wine lambs blood and matzah
Can’t deny my Jesus was Rabbi not Minister

CHORUS
