This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine I'm gonna put it on a stand, I won't give up the fight I'v got a stamp o' courage, I won't be discouraged I'm gonna stand in the truth and that the truth is knowledge That I am blessed, I'm blessed, I'm blessed, to have a love like this, like this, like this, Yes, I am a son of the King I know that I'm accepted I have a destiny And I won't be rejected
And I want you to feel it, that is why I say this I let it out Spread these balls Making God famous
So I'm'a let it shine This little light of mine I'll put the news on a stand and I won't let it hide So you can come and ask, and I will tell the truth 'Cause my story stands before you and it's living proof If He did it for me, then He'll do it for you He's knocking on the door, you gotta let him through?
