This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
I'm gonna put in on a stand I won't give up the fight
I'm got a stamp of courage, and I won't be discouraged
I'm gonna stand in the truth and that the truth is knowledge
That I am blessed, I'm blessed, I'm blessed
To have a love like this, like this, like this
I am a son of the King
I know that I'm accepted
I have a destiny
And I wont be rejected
And I want you to feel it, that is why I say this
I let it out, spit these bars, making God famous
So I'mma let it shine
This little light of mine
I'll put the news on a stand I will lift it high
So you can come and ask, and I will tell the truth
'Cos my story stands before you and it's living proof
If He did it for me, He will do it for you
He's knocking on the door you gotta let Him through

This little light, a light of mine
I'm gonna let it, let it shine
This little light, a light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine

Let it shine
Let it shine
Let it shine
Oh, let it shine

Let it shine
Let it shine
Let it shine
Oh, let it shine

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
I'm gonna testify
Never giving up the fight
Hold me in your grand design
I believe it
Said you were the reason why
Now I see it
No longer fake, your no longer confused
Yo, I give You praise 'cos I love what You do
'Cos you give me something people don't understand (Yo)
You know You make me wanna be a better man (So)
I'm gonna go out and talk to Your people... (yes yes yes)
I wanna talk to Your people
Give 'em a chance to get up and to here the truth
And the truth is You're the reason why we're breathing

I'm gonna let it shine, this little light of mine
Yeah, open up the door, let the people pass through
See the light on the hill and it shines right through
'Cos He's reaching out a hand, calling out to you

This little light, a light of mine
I'm gonna let it, let it shine
This little light, a light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine

Let it shine
Let it shine
Let it shine
Oh, let it shine

Let it shine

Oh, let it shine

Do you wanna be a saint to the nation
Are you gonna change your generation
This is gonna be your motivation
All you gotta do is start a conversation

Do you wanna be a saint to the nation
Are you gonna change your generation

All you gotta do is start a conversation

[Child voice]
You are the light of the world
A city on a hill that cannot be hidden
Cannot be hidden
