You Are A Candle For The Kingdom Of Light
So Why Be Smoldered By The Darkness In Life
Remember What Jesus Has Done For You
Get On Your Feet And Start To Move
Shine Like A Beacon Throughout The Land
As You Are Guided By Gods' Right Hand
Let Your Candle Shine In It's Stand
And Let Your Moderation Be Known To Every Man
Jesus Is Risen And Living In You
He is Changing The Old And Making It New
God Is The Strength That Strengthens You
For His Grace Is Sufficient To See You Through
By His Spirit We Are Lead
Bringing Life To Those Who Are Dead
Satan Is Guiding Them Into The Ditch
You Must Show Them Which is Which
The Devil's Only Weapon Is His Lying Tongue
You Must Show Them What He Has Done
Expose The Darkness With Your Light
Even If It Costs You Your Very Own Life
Christ Is Risen And Coming Again
At A Time We Know Not When
He Will Judge The Quick and The Dead
And Put The Mark Of His Ownership Upon Our Foreheads
Everyone Will Kneel Before Gods' Throne
But First He Will Judge Is Very Own
On That Last Day We Will Hear God Say
Goats To The Left And The Sheep To The Right
And Then The Battle Will Be Over Without A Fight
The Devil Is Defeated It Is Easy To See
For Christ Is Risen In Victory
Let Your Light Shine Until He Comes Again
Then The Lion Will Lay Down With The Lamb
And The Battle Will Be Over By Gods' Right Hand
Shine On So All Can See
Shine On And Be Set Free
Shine On So All Can See
Shine on To Victory
You Are A Candle!
I started writing this poem back in 1986 or 1987. I ask the Lord to give
me a song to bless His people with, so I always believed that this poem
would be used as a song some day. I did not start writing poems extensively until around 1998. This is the song version of the poem.
You Are a Candle
