One Little Candle

 One little candle burning bright

Warm and welcoming source of light

Bright speck in the dark and gloom

A spot of light within the room

Its waxen arms seem to raise

Little hands in a sign of praise

 Will we be like that candle bright?

A warm and welcoming source of light?

Lighting the way so others may see

The True Light, the Life, the One who sets us free

Will we be a bright speck in the dark and gloom?

A spot of light within the room?

 Do others see us praise the King?

The Maker and Ruler of everything
