Promise

Declaration We are the light People, light up your light tonight I wanna see you shine Fight despair Don't let it get you down Don't let it tie you down There's a man with a wife and three children Who's been told he can't work There's a boy who's been told there's no future He's 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 Don't let anyone turn your eyes Look ahead, don't stop to look behind The past ain't no friend of mine There's a failure who is standing on the corner For he cannot see hope There's 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 There'd 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
