Light Your Candle

You've been standing on the edges
Hesitant to get involved
Oh, you're good at riding fences
But your problems go unsolved
Your light's under a bushel
It's been hidden on a hill
Oh, you tell me that you love Him
But you failed to do His will

You gotta light your candle
Light your candle
Light your candle
On the front porch of hell

You've been living on a border
Just barely getting by
Your prayers they sound like orders
There's no weeping when you cry
Sometimes you can be cold
Other times you come on hot
Oh, you've been playing games for so long
First you're unfaithful then you're not

You gotta light your candle
Light your candle
Light your candle
On the front porch of hell
You gotta light your candle
Let it burn bright in the face of the devil
Light your candle
On the front porch of hell

Oh, you look so safe and warm
In your life of in-betweens
You don't want to touch nobody
Who will rip you at your seams
I know it's hard to live for Him
In a dry and weary land
But if you want to share in Heaven
On this Earth you've got to make a stand

You gotta light your candle
Light your candle
Light your candle
On the front porch of hell
You gotta light your candle
Let it burn bright in the face of the devil
Light your candle
On the front porch

Light your candle
Light your candle
Light your candle
On the front porch of hell
You gotta light your candle
Let it burn bright in the face of the devil
Light your candle
On the front porch of hell

You gotta light your candle
You gotta light your candle
