Light a Light by Rachel Harris, December 2016

Intro: Asus2 x4

Chorus:

Light a     light,      light a       light,    light a tiny light in the darkness

Asus2Asus2     Cmaj7Em7      Asus2        Asus2          Cmaj7Em7   Asus2 x4

Light a    light,        light a     light,    eight tiny lights on the darkest nights

 

VERSE 1:

We don’t hope for 1,000 lights, inferno grand and awesome          

A miracle shorter than the count of ten will not be forgotten

 

Chorus:

Light a light, light alight, eight tiny lights on the darkest nights

The bricks held, the sky   cleared, the oil  burned, they hoped and feared

 

VERSE 2:

The smallest things are never seen in the bright sun shine of August

On the shortest days of the year tiny lights will acknowledge 

 

Chorus:

Light a light, light a light, eight tiny lights on the darkest nights

The bricks hold, the sky clears, the oil burns, we hope and fear

 

VERSE 3:

A candle sits on the window sill, strange shadows fill my room

Light my face, make us whole, let relief come soon

 

Chorus:

Light a light, light a light, light a tiny light in the darkness

Light a light, light a light, eight tiny lights on the darkest nights

In the inky black all seems lost but not with a tiny light
