People
Light up your light tonight
I wanna see you shine

Fight despair
DonжЉ° let it get you down
DonжЉ° let it tie you down

ThereжЉЇ a man with a wife and three children
WhoжЉЇ been told he canжЉ° work
ThereжЉЇ a boy whoжЉЇ been told thereжЉЇ no future
HeжЉЇ been led by the blind

And I can hear them crying
As they try to sleep through the night
I can hear them cry
I can hear them cry

WE ARE THE LIGHT
WE ARE THE LIGHT
WE ARE THE LIGHT OF OUR LIVES

Hold on
To what you believe is right
DonжЉ° let anyone turn your eyes
Look ahead
DonжЉ° stop to look behind
The past ainжЉ° no friend of mine
ThereжЉЇ a failure who is standing on the corner
For he cannot see hope
ThereжЉЇ a blind man who is standing at the crossroads
For he cannot see light

And as we fire the candles
We must make sure they burn through the night
For if they should die
ThereжЉЋ be no light

WE ARE THE LIGHT
WE ARE THE LIGHT
WE ARE THE LIGHT OF OUR LIVES
WE ARE THE LIGHT
WE ARE THE LIGHT OF OUR LIVES
SHINE YOUR LIGHT
SHINE YOUR LIGHT
SHINE YOUR LIGHT
SHINE
SHINE YOUR LIGHT
SHINE YOUR LIGHT
SHINE YOUR LIGHT
SHINE

WE ARE THE LIGHT
SHINE ON, SHINE ON SHINE
WE ARE THE LIGHT
