 The Candle Lighting Procedure

One must light candles at the time cited on the Jewish calendar. One must not do so afterwards, because it is forbidden to kindle any fire on Shabbat. After the lighting, one recites the blessing: 
“Baruch Ata Ado-nai Elo-henu Melech ha'olam asher kidshanu be’mitzvosav ve’tzivanu le’hadlik ner shel Shabbat.” 
Some women practice the custom of blessing after the kindling.

Performing a mitzvah as great as lighting candles on time, is a favorable occasion for praying, especially for meriting good children.
 
• One should rejoice at the arrival of Shabbat, as if he is going out to greet a king” (Shulchan Aruch, "Orech Chayim," stanza 252).

• “Wise people hasten to usher in Shabbat and to receive its blessings. They also delay parting from it at its end.  One who understands that a person who hastens to receive Shabbat and delays parting from it in order to receive G-d’s blessing which anyway befalls those who observe Shabbat, is fortunate” (Chofetz Chayim on the Torah, parshas Beraishis 2:3).
