a thousand candles

We light a thousand candles bright 
around the earth today
And all the beams will shine across 
the heaven's grand display

Yes, over land and sea tonight
the joyful message bring
The birth of Him our Lord and Christ 
Our Savior and our King!

Dear brightest star o'er Bethlehem
O let your precious light 
shine in with hope 
and peace t'ward men 
in ev'ry heart tonight 

<s1076>Lord, keep your candle shining in my heart 
and let the glowing show from inside out
Change the world thru what they see in me
A candle of your love I want to be!</s>
