I LIGHT A CANDLE

I LIGHT A CANDLE



(SLOW) This little light of mine… I’m gonna let it shine. , shine, shine  , shine







I light a candle...



For all the soldiers

who will never see their family

or hold their sons and daughters

I light a candle





I light a candle...



For kids in school

who should feel safe each & everyday

while we live by the golden rule

I light a candle

I light a candle...





CHORUS:



I LIGHT A CANDLE AND SAY A LITTLE PRAYER

HUMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

I LIGHT A CANDLE TO SHOW THAT I CARE

HUMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

I LIGHT A CANDLE FOR HUMANITY

LIVIN’ IN THIS WORLD OF IN-SAN-ITY

I LIGHT A CANDLE FOR YOU, YOU AND YOU

(AND YES BROTHER…)

I LIGHT A CANDLE FOR, FALLEN ANGELS TOO



I light a candle...



for girls n boys

who's innocence was taken when

life should be love and joy

I light a candle



I light a candle...



for battered women

who struggle everyday for strength

to fight the fight within

I light a candle

I light a candle...



CHORUS END ( or many more verses could be added)





(THIS LYRIC IS A WORK IN PROGRESS)

Author's Notes/Comments: 

There were a few things weighting heavy on my mind about the state of this crazy world we live in. Today one my friends and a songwriting partner
were talking about the state of the world and she only lives 30 min. from the Amish school house that was just on the news.
I also heard a sad story about a little girl as I went to bed... I woke up about 1:30AM.and wrote this work in progress
