1. This little light of mine, if I shine, shine, shine,
can fill the world with beauty.
This little light of mine is the Light of Christ—
it helps me know my duty.
This little light of mine will shine, shine, shine,
and light the world with love.
2. Our Savior Jesus Christ shared His holy light
with those who were despairing.
And by His gentle touch others felt his love,
through simple acts of caring.
This little light of mine will shine, shine, shine,
and light the world with love.
3. This little light of mine shining bright, bright, bright,
will teach the ways of Jesus.
And as I share my light, serving with my might,
I’ll feel the joy that He does.
This little light of mine will shine, shine, shine,
and light the world with love.
