drawing others to that light/ bring the light to others – v2


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
God’s 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 grace

bring the light to them
the fire in our hearts,
share God’s love with grace
until we see God’s face
