Lyrics:
*This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
This little light of mine, let it shine.
This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
This little light of mine, let it shine.
He walks among the lamp stands, the seven lamps of gold.
His eyes like flames of fire, His hair as white as snow.
The Alpha and Omega, the Son of Man is He.
His countenance, a shining sun, His voice, a rolling sea.
He brings a message for the churches. He brings an admonition clear
That He is sending by His Spirit for all of those with ears to hear:
“Your works have been abundant. Your perseverance never waned.
But what was lost amid your labor was love’s initial flame.”
“Remember, Church, remember the place from where you fell.
Recall the time when labor would flow from love compelled.
Oh, repent and do the first works that once would flame the fire,
Lest I remove your lamp stand, Your candle to retire.”
Oh, let a holy dread o’erwhelm us. Oh, let a godly fear embrace
To think a church could toil and labor and yet give up its useful place.
Awaken love to burn within us! Arouse the embers deep inside,
And do not let our church’s candle be ever cast aside!
