Light and the dark
dancing with one another
(to the tune of Let There Be Light)
Hallow the Light
Light of a star to guide us
Light of a candle burning
Light on a loved one’s face
Here in our midst
Candle flames shine so gently
Peace for a people gathered
Hope for a people graced
Light and the dark
Dancing with one another
Shaping a faith-filled story
Holding each holy life
Sacred and small
Bearing our lives like torches
Led by compassion’s calling
We will go out in praise
