[Verse 1]
Light the Advent candle one
Now the waiting has begun
We have started on our way
Time to think of Christmas day

[Refrain]
Candle, candle burning bright
Shining in the cold winter night
Candle, candle burning bright
Fill our hearts with Christmas light

[Verse 2]
Light the Advent candle two
Think of humble shepherds who
Filled with wonder at the sight
Of the child on Christmas night

[Refrain]
Candle, candle burning bright
Shining in the cold winter night
Candle, candle burning bright
Fill our hearts with Christmas light

[Verse 3]
Light the Advent candle three
Think of heavenly harmony
Angels singing "Peace on Earth"
At the Blessed Saviour's birth
[Refrain]
Candle, candle burning bright
Shining in the cold winter night
Candle, candle burning bright
Fill our hearts with Christmas light

[Verse 4]
Light the Advent candle four
Think of Joy forever more
Christ child in a stable born
Gift of love that Christmas morn

[Refrain]
Candle, candle burning bright
Shining in the cold winter night
Candle, candle burning bright
Fill our hearts with Christmas light
