Little Light of Mine
for Shyloh Jade
Verse 1
This little light of mine, how special you shine
If you lift up your voice, there’s a song you will find
This little light of mine, sometimes they won’t understand
Before you give to the outside, you have to grow what’s within
Chorus
Never, never dim your light for anyone
Look inside yourself to discover
The magic that you hold, be bold
Verse 2
This little light of mine, maybe they don’t mean what they say
But I feel a quake in my voice, I feel my song start to fade
Here in the dark, I don’t like being so bright
The shadows always seem to have a problem
With the way that I shine
Maybe I shouldn’t even try
Chorus
No, never, never dim your light for anyone
Look inside yourself to discover
The magic that you hold, be bold
Bridge
Oh, embrace the inner magic to create the outer world
-What will they say?
It doesn’t matter, you are diamonds and pearls
-What if I fall?
Just ask the spirit, let these words be your guide
When you’re lost look in the mirror and repeat these words of mine
Chorus
I’ll never, I’ll never dim my light for anyone
No, don’t sing like that. Sing louder and stronger
I’ll never, I’ll never dim my light for anyone
I’ll look inside myself to discover
The magic that I hold, and be bold
