From The New American Haggadah, the Reconstructionist haggadah, something you might want to find a place for as you go through the seder.
Kamah Ma’alot Tovot Lamakom Aleinu
How many are the goodly favors G-d has bestowed upon us.
Had You given us children but not made them as beautiful in spirit as in form -
They would be enough. DAYENU!
Had you made them as beautiful in spirit as in form but not placed love and wisdom in their hearts -
They would be enough. DAYENU!
Had you placed love and wisdom in their hearts but not sown honor and respect in their minds -
They would be enough. DAYENU!
Had you sown honor and respect in their minds but not taught them justice and charity -
They would be enough. DAYENU!
Al Achat Kamah V’Chamah Tovah Ch’fula Um’chupelet Lamakom Aleinu
How much greater is our gratitude to G-d for doubling and redoubling these precious gifts.
Dear children, know that you are more than enough, that you are a sign of the covenant and a blessing to our people.
