Light Your World

(album: The Christmas Shoes - 2001)

Light your world, let the love of God shine through
In the little things you do light your world

Two doors down one rocking chair is rocking
She sits there all alone, her husband dead and gone
The best years of her life they spent together
He was always strong, but now she's on her own

And the telephone never rings
No one laughs, no one sings
It's quiet there, does anyone care?

Light your world, let the love of God shine through
In the little things you do, light your world
And though your light may be
Reaching only two or three, light your world

A knocking at her door breaks the silence
She looks out to see a little boy from down the street
She cracks the door, surprised that he came over
Flowers in his hand like a little gentleman

He said, "I picked these just for you
I hope you like the color blue
Could I stay a while, I love to see you smile"

And light your world, let the love of God shine through
In the little things you do, light your world
And though your light may be
Reaching only two or three, light your world

It only takes a little time
To show someone how much you care
It only takes a little time
To answer someone's biggest prayer

Light your world, let the love of God shine through
In the little things you do, light your world
And though your light may be
Reaching only two or three, light your world

Let the love of God shine through
In the little things you do, light your world
And though your light may be
Reaching only two or three, light your world

Two doors down one rocking chair is rocking
