drawing others to that light/ bring the light to others

The light of Christ shining

our calling in this life

drawing others to that light

the source of eternal life

lighting our candles with that light

sharing the light with others

not losing in sharing the light

our love with our neighbor

a fire within us, God’s light

rising from the crèche

from the love of Christ

to fill the world with love

bring the light to them

the fire in our hearts

share God’s love with grace

until we see God’s face
