1.
It is beautiful un - lighted,
and a Christian is too,
and You are too.
2. To really see it
(un - lighted) you have to look in its direction
and as a Christian is too,
and
we
appreciate
your humbleness too.
3. It is available to receive the fire
and a Christian is too,
and you are too.
4. It does not fight the fire, but receives it and makes
light with it
and a Christian does too,
and you do too.
5. It gives of itself. All of its resources are used up in
keeping the light burnings
and a Christian does too,
and you do too.
6.
Without its presence (lighted light) there would be less light in the whole
wide universe!
or warmth!
and you do too.
7.
A Christian's fire is needed to
depose
the
cold of Satan's fingers.
and yours do too.
8.
Other lights are measured by its power
and ours by yours,
and yours by His.
May you continue to be
Each Other's Candle
Each Other's Fire!
and
Ours too!
