My hope is like a candle's flame
That burns throughout the night.
No matter what the crisis is
I still can see some light.
It's kept me warm through many storms
And led me through the rain.
When noone else would care for me
It burned away my pain.
And when I felt I couldnt't walk
another mile up hill,
I took and step and found
My light was brighter still.
Through all the trials and tribulations
Life has thrown at me,
My candle's flame has led the way
And made sure I could see.
So when my days are bright enough
That I can guide myself,
I use my candle anyway-
to help somebody else.
