You Got the Light - Bobby Bare

When you see your brother stumbling

Walking down life’s rocky road

And you reach out your hand

Help him lighten up his love

'Cause you got the light (You've got the light)

You got the light (You've got the light)

Well let it shine, let it shine

Let it shine

(You've got the light, you’ve got the light)

If you see him down and outer

And life’s got him on the ropes

And if you take some time to stop

And give him a little hope

Then you got the light (You've got the light)

You got the light (You've got the light)

Well let it shine let it shine

Let it shine

(You've got the light, baby that’s right)

If your brother’s lost in darkness

And cannot find his way

Shine your light so he can see

And brighten up his day

'Cause you got the light (You've got the light)

You’ve got the light (You've got the light)

Well let it shine, let it shine

Let it shine

(You've got the light, baby that’s right)

When you see evil all around you

That you don’t understand

Remember you are holding the light

Right in your hand

Got the light (You've got the light)

You’ve got the light (You've got the light)

Well you got the light, let it shine, let it shine

Let it shine

(You've got the light)

Oh, baby that’s right

Uh-huh

Might even change the world

It might not take too much

Start with a little mercy

Mercy and gentle touch

Understanding and forgiveness

You gotta let everybody know

That if you’re spread all around the world

Then maybe you can pray your soul

Yeah let it shine (You've got the light)

You’ve got the light (You've got the light)

Let it shine, let it shine

Let it shine

(You've got the light)

Let it shine, let it shine

Let it shine

(Baby that’s right)

You’ve got the light, let it shine, let it shine

(You've got the light)
