this light is for the world
this light is for the world
send out from this wooden frame
a beacon made of holy flame
like a bridge across the morning sky
from candle to the hills of high
this light is for the world
this light is for the world
send it out with sword of fire,
with cymbal, drum and angel choir,
music in the heart of it
proclaiming that the lamp is lit
this light is for the world
this light is for the world
bring it down from where the light is born
deep into the world of form
loving, blessing, healing as it shines
in darkened places, darkened minds
this light is for the world
this light is for the world
this light is for the world
send out from this wooden frame
a beacon made of holy flame
like a bridge across the morning sky
from candle to the hills of high
this light is for the world
this light is for the world
send it out with sword of fire,
with cymbal, drum and angel choir,
music in the heart of it
proclaiming that the lamp is lit
this light is for the world
this light is for the world
bring it down from where the light is born
deep into the world of form
loving, blessing, healing as it shines
in darkened places, darkened minds
this light is for the world
this light is for the world
