"taking light into dark corners"
Light a Candle
We hear the news, we respond emotionally, then what? Jesus points us to the hurting and says, “follow me”. Light a candle in the darkness
Light a Candle
Light a candle in the night
Let the love of Jesus light us
Light a candle in the night
Like a flicker in the darkness
Comes a mother’s desperate cry
And a baby’s voice in answer
Brings the coming of the light
He didn’t come in wealth and grandeur
He didn’t stand with men of power
He had no status to commend him
He was homeless he was poor
But he came to heal the wounded
And he came to heal the scars
Of a world that’s bruised and broken
Where the image has been marred
And we see him in the hungry
And the homeless refugee
In the sick and dying children
His arms reach out to you and me
And I feel his breath upon me
And he whispers “Follow me”
And he grants his fire within me
Says let it shine for all to see
