when you have to stand up straight and tall
and mean the words you say.
there's a point you must decide just to do it cause it's right.
and that's when you become a point of light.
there is a darkness that everyone must face.
it wants to take what's good and fair and lay it all to waste.
and that darkness covers everything in sight
until it meets is a single point of light.
(chrous)
all it takes is a point of light.
a ray of hope in the darkest night.
if you see what's wrong
and you try to make it right
then you will be a point of light.

there are heros whose names we never hear.
our dedicated army.
our quiet volunteers reaching out to feed the hungry,
reaching out to save the land.
reaching out to help there fellow man.
there are dreamers who are making dreams come true
takign time to teach the children there is nothing they can't do.
giving shelter to the homeless.
giving hope to those without.
isn't that what this land's all about?
one by one from the mountains to the sea
points of light calling out to you and me.

all it takes is a point of light.
a ray of hope in the darkest night.
if you see what's wrong
and try to make it right
you will be a point of light
