Light a Candle - Daniel O'Donnell

For the old man who sits staring

Out a frosty window pane

Light a candle

For the woman who is lonely

And every Christmas it’s the same

For the children who need

More than presents can bring

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 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

BRIDGE:

And in this special time of year

May peace on earth surround us here

And teach us there’s a better way to live

Oh, and with every flame that burns

We must somehow learn

That love’s the greatest gift

That we could ever give
