*THEY WILL ONLY SEE THE LIGHT OF HOPE. (AUTHOR UNKNOWN)

HIS LIGHT AM I TO SHINE WHERE HE SHALL SAY;

AND LAMPS ARE NOT FOR SUNNY ROOMS NOR FOR THE LIGHT OF DAY.

BUT FOR THE DARK PLACES OF THE EARTH,

WHERE SHAME AND WRONG AND CRIMES GIVE BIRTH.

OR FOR THE MILKY TWILIGHT GRAY,

WHERE WANDERING SHEEP HAVE GONE ASTRAY.

OR WHERE THE LAMP OF FAITH GROWS DIM

AND SOULS ARE GROPING AFTER HIM.

AND SOMETIMES A FLAME WE FIND,

CLEAR SHINING THROUGH THE LIGHT,

SO DARK WE CANNOT SEE THE LAMPS,

BUT ONLY SEE THE LIGHT.

SO MAY I SHINE HIS LOVE AND HIS FLAME

THAT MEN MIGHT GLORIFY HIS NAME.

A CANDLE LOSES NOTHING BY LIGHTING ANOTHER CANDLE.
