The Easter Vigil Service
Let Your candle burn Let your candle burn Within our hands Bringing forth a new light Our lamps to breach the night Let your candle burn From heart to soul A touch of forgiveness An open welcome home.... an open welcome home... yes, a promise still calling us home Let your candle burn Throughout this place As embers in the darkness The shadows invade Let your candle burn As flame purges gold A keen, disturbing fire Piercing the stone..... piercing the stone...... piercing the hardest stone (Chorus) Let Your Spirit of the Light Enter Your chamber within With the promise of this night Unveiling the pathway to Heaven And the brokenness within us Your love will make whole The passion that you've given Will rescue our souls Let your candle burn within us here Let your candle burn so clear Let your candle burn Enlighten our face Make stronger our perceiving The clear from the haze Let your candle burn Empassion our souls With tenderness so fervent A never-failing Love... a never failing Love... never failing Love (repeat Chorus) Let your candle burn Within our hands Bringing forth a new light Our lamps to breach the night Let your candle burn From heart to soul A touch of forgiveness An open welcome home.... an open welcome home... yes, a promise still calling us home (Final Chorus) Copyright © 2001, Robert G.
