This Little Light

(album: Open Your Eyes - 2011)

Somebody turn on the lights
We're going from the day into the night
At the speed of light
Sending you a transmission from a satelight
From the edge of space on the clearest night
What a beautiful sight to see the lights ignite
And tonight's your night
To let your light blow like dynamite

This little light of mine
I'll let it shine
Let it light up the sky
Let it burn up the night
Let it shine
Shine tonight
Shine
Let it shine
Shine so bright
Shine your light out into the night
Your little light inside
You can't hide it
It's burning brighter
Your shining tonight
Let it shine
Shine tonight
Shine
Let it shine
Shine so bright
Shine your light out into the night

It's a new world
It's a new day
Sun shinning but in a new way
It's the same place but a new race
Gonna need a little bit more of your grace
Gotta show this world
Every last boy every last girl
Gotta let 'em know gotta let it show
Gotta let it glow gotta let it overflow
Into the streets below so

We can turn this 'round
Let our light shine
Let the lost get found
Let the sound of a thousand voices rise
Resound in the streets
Resound in the shies
I can't hide this light
Let it ignite tonight
I just might
So stand back if you don't wanna be blinded
Because I can't hide it I've gotta shine it

This little light of mine
I'll let it shine
Let it light up the sky
Let it burn up the night
Let it shine
Shine tonight
Shine
Let it shine
Shine so bright
Shine your light out into the night
Your little light inside
You can't hide it
It's burning brighter
Your shining tonight
Let it shine
Shine tonight
Shine
Let it shine
Shine so bright
Shine your light out into the night

Wont you rise up
Light the skies up
You were born
For this moment
Lift your eyes up
Wont you rise up
Light the skies up
Darkness can't stand it
When you light the night up
Wont you rise up
Light the skies up
You were born
For this moment
Lift your eyes up
Wont you rise up
Light the skies up
Darkness can't stand it
When you light the night up

This little light of mine
I'll let it shine
Let it light up the sky
Let it burn up the night
Let it shine
Shine tonight
Shine
Let it shine
Shine so bright
Shine your light out into the night
Your little light inside
You can't hide it
It's burning brighter
Your shining tonight
Let it shine
Shine tonight
Shine
Let it shine
Shine so bright
Shine your light out into the night
