People Light up your light tonight I wanna see you shine Fight despair Donæ° let it get you down Donæ° let it tie you down Thereæ¯ a man with a wife and three children Whoæ¯ been told he canæ° work Thereæ¯ a boy whoæ¯ been told thereæ¯ no future Heæ¯ 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 Donæ° let anyone turn your eyes Look ahead Donæ° stop to look behind The past ainæ° no friend of mine Thereæ¯ a failure who is standing on the corner For he cannot see hope Thereæ¯ 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 Thereæ 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
