A floodlight, a strobe light
a light in the window
a search light, a flashlight
a lighthouse shining in the darkness
Many gifts, many lights
all given by God
to be carried into the wilderness
to the ends of the earth
Each of us chosen
commissioned by the creator
each of us a witness
a light to the nations
All of us are to carry
the light of Christ ever
to testify to his goodness
His grace to all people
