Mavis Staples - This Little Light lyrics

This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine All in my home I'm gonna let it shine All in my room I'm gonna let it shine, Shine now The road was ruff (through the dark) The way was long I kept on singing that freedom song My God promised me a rainbow sign Just gotta let my little light shine Don't give up Don't back down Don't let the liar turn you around My heart's fixed Way up in mind I'm going out and let my little light shine Shure gonna let my little light shine All in the streets I'm gonna let it shine All in the battlefield I'm gonna let it shine See now I ain't gonna fightin no rich man's war That ain't what God wanted use me for k**ing folks it ain't in my line Shure ain't no way to let my little light shine Shine on me Shine on me Let the light from the lighthouse ... shine on me You can't fool all the people all the time Get together let our little light shine (Oh yes) Let it shine [x4] This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine When it's cold Let it shine When the liar calls Let it shine In my home Let it shine In my room Let it shine When hatred calls Let it shine When it shines Freedom shines When it shines No more sorrow When it shine No more pain When it shine Oh lord When it shine This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine
