This Little Light of Mine


There's a little flame inside a soul
Some shine bright
Some shine small
The rains will come

And the waters rise
But don't you ever lose your light
In this life you will know
Love and pain

Joy and sorrow
So when it hurts
When times get hard
Don't forget who's child you are

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm Gonna let it shine

Gonna let it shine
May you live each day
With no regret
Make the most of every chance you get

And your eyes get wide
When you look at the stars
With the same sense of wonder as a child's heart
With the ones you love

Treasure the time
And for those who are gone
Keep the memories alive
Hold on to your dreams

Don't ever let go
There's a fire inside you
Burning with hope
This little light of mine

I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine

There will be days when you wanna give up
When clouds settle in
But after the rain comes the sun
Don't you ever forget

Don't forget
Don't, don't forget
One day there will be no more pain
And we will finally see Jesus' face

So until then I'm gonna try
To brave the dark
And let my little light shine
This little light of mine

I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine

Gonna let it shine
Oh, shine
Gonna let it shine
There's a little light inside us all
