Light a Candle

Light a candle

For the old man who sits staring

Out a frosty windowpane

Light a candle

For the woman who is lonely

And every Christmas is the same

For the children who need

More than presents can bring

Light a candle, light the dark

Light the world, light a heart or two

Light a candle for me

I'll light a candle for you

Light a candle

For the homeless and the hungry

A little shelter from the cold

Light a candle

For the broken and forgotten

May the season warm their souls

Can we open our hearts

To shine through the dark?

Light a candle, light the dark

Light the world, light a heart or two

Light a candle for me

I'll light a candle for you

Ooh and in this special time of year

May peace on earth surround us here

And teach us there's a better way to live

Oh, and with every flame that burns

We must somehow learn

That love's the greatest gift

That we could ever give

Light a candle, light the dark

Light the world

(Light a heart or two)

Light a candle for me

I'll light a candle for you

Light a candle, light the dark

Light the world

(Light a heart or two)

Light a candle for me

I'll light a candle for you

Light a candle for me

I'll light a candle for you

(Light a candle for me)

Oh, I'll light a candle for you
