Candle, you were made for burning

Love, you were meant to shine

Jesus, you know my inner yearning -

but who can see this little light of mine?


Sleeper, wake up from your slumber

Rise, Christ will give you light.

O, that we might see some good

glowing through the dark tonight.


So let your light shine before the world

that they night find the narrow way through the night.

So let your light shine before the world

that they night magnify our Father in heaven.


Candle, you were made for burning

Love, you were meant to shine

Darkness cannot overcome you


Lord, lift up all the glory

of Your countenance upon Your chosen people

that we might break forth as the dawn.
