Light A Candle

As this year closes, I ponder on what I did to better the lives of those less fortunate.  I ask myself, did I do enough?  Did I do anything?  Here is a song that will help us remember that we should help others, not just this season, but always.

Light A Candle
Wrtten by Haun, Lindsay
Sung By: Avalon

Light a candle
For the old man who sits staring
Out a frosty windowpane
Light a candle
For the woman who is lonely
And every Christmas is the same
For the children who needs
More than presents can bring.

Light a candle
Light the dark
Light the world
Light a heart or two
Light a candle for me
Light a candle for you.

Light a candle
For the homeless and the hungry
A little shelter from the cold
Light a candle
For the broken and forgotten
May the season warm their souls

Can we open our hearts
To shine through the dark?

Light a candle
Light the dark?
Light the world
Light a heart or two
Light a candle for me
I'll light a candle for you.

And in this special time of year
May peace on earth surround us here
And teach us there's a better way to live
And with every flame that burns
We must somehow learn
That love's the greatest gift that we could ever give.

Light a candle
Light the dark
Light the world
Light a heart or two
Light a candle for me
I'll light a candle for you.

Light a candle for me
Light a candle for you.

Have a safe and happy new year!

  1. It is so true that love is the greatest gift we can give and even get. I've learned a lot this year and how important it is to know you are loved and to have the support of your loved ones.
