(continued) One Little Candle

One Little Candle

I am one little candle,
   one small light.
How can I hope
   to pierce the night?

What can I do
   with one small light;
to ease the pain,
   relieve the plight,

of those who
   lost sight
of their own
   small light?

We’re each a candle,
    flame burning bright.
Together, our prayers
   will banish the night,

Rekindle the hope,
   Restore the Light.
