A flame is rising up in you
A spark is struck electric blue
For the hand of Love has brushed your eyes
And now it's love that shines
Light a candle

There's a surge of hope within your heart
And you want to play a bigger part
For you heard the word that Jesus said
You want to turn the world upon its head
Now you lift your hands up high into the sky
Light a candle

The city of faith cannot be hid
Let the fire burn on the holy wind
So if you want to change the world
And be a living flame
Light a candle

So on a cold and moonless night
In your window place your candlelight
And let it burn so all can see
Your holy torch of liberty

And pray for love, pray for peace
Pray the world will be released
From the fear that locks us in the dark
From the hate that pulls us all apart
In the ashes there will rise a sacred flame
Light a candle
