We Are All a Little Candle

 




We are all a little like a candlestick 
Potential, dark and brittle until someone lights the wick 
No matter how pretty or polished, the taper or jar 
We are just a knick-knack till we shine right where we are 

God instilled in everyone a little candlestick 
Oh, won’t you hold it up to Him and let Him light the wick? 
Then whether it’s a song, a smile, a bit of poetry 
We can brighten someone’s mile by shining cheerfully
