This Little Light of Mine

Now this little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine

All in my home
I'm gonna let it shine
All in my room
I'm gonna let it shine, shine now

The road is dark
The way was long
Kept on singing that freedom song
My God promised me a rainbow sign
Just gotta let my little light shine

Don't give up
Don't back down
Don't let the liar turn you around

My heart's fixed
Way up in mind
I'm going out and let my little light shine
Sure gonna let my little light shine

All in the streets
I'm gonna let it shine
All in the battlefield
I'm gonna let it shine

See now, I ain't gonna fight in no rich man's war
That ain't what God want to use me for
Killing folks, it ain't in my line
Sure ain't no way to let my little light shine

Shine on me
Shine on me
Let the light from the lighthouse
Shine on me

You can't fool all the people all the time
Get together, let our little light shine

(Oh yes)
Let it shine
(Oh yes)
Let it shine
(Oh yes)
Let it shine
(Oh yes)
Let it shine

This little light of mine
(Whoa yes)
I'm gonna let it shine
(Whoa yes)
This little light of mine
(Whoa yes)
I'm gonna let it shine

When it's cold
(Whoa yes)
Let it shine
(Whoa yes)
When the liar calls
(Whoa yes)
Let it shine
(Whoa yes)
In my home
(Whoa yes)
Let it shine
(Whoa yes)
In my room
(Whoa yes)
Let it shine
(Whoa yes)
When hatred calls
(Whoa yes)
Let it shine
(Whoa yes)
When it shines
(Whoa yes)
Freedom shines
(Whoa yes)
When it shines
(Whoa yes)
No more sorrow
(Whoa yes)
When it shine
(Whoa yes)
No more pain
(Whoa yes)
When it shine
(Whoa yes)
Oh lord
(Whoa yes)
When it shine
(Whoa yes)
