I Would Light a Candle
I would light a candle to chase away the darkness,
And I would light your candle from mine.
Each of us can light another, sharing the flame,
Helping the hopeless see
That each of us can make a difference when we really care.
Yes, each of us can make a difference when we choose to share.
One can light another and two can share the brightness,
And four can chase the darkness away.
Eight becomes a hundred, then a thousand or more,
Turning the night into day.
A hundred thousand candles spread a glorious light;
An everlasting beacon on the stormiest night.
Light the light, share the vision.
Show the world what one man can do.
Be the one to set the brave example,
Maybe what the world needs is you.
You can be a beacon when hope hides in the shadows;
A tiny light to light the darkest way.
Keep the candles burning bright when troubles appear,
And turn someone’s night into day.
A candle losses nothing when it lights another flame.
And any journey’s possible when you can see the way.
Light the light, share the vision.
Show the world what one man can do.
Be the one to set the brave example.
Maybe what the world needs is you.
Maybe what the world needs is you. |
