LET IT SHINE

Laura E Zucker © 2013

The puddles are all frozen, gray skies draw near

No one can quite figure out how we lost another year

Decorations dazzle all around my neighborhood

Inviting us to fill our hearts with cheer

Let them shine, like diamonds in the night

Let them fill us up with light

So we can shine upon each other like the stars above

With our greatest miracle- love.

Judah and his brothers were a powerful clan.

They re-sanctified their temple and reclaimed their land

And as a heavenly tribute for their courage and toil

They got eight days of light from one jar of oil

Let it shine, like a diamond in the night

Let it fill us up with light

So we can shine upon each other like the stars above

With our greatest miracle- love.

In deepest darkest winter a child was born

Sent to save a world that was tattered and torn

The Kings who came to witness, who had travelled so far

Were beckoned by the beacon of a star

Let it shine, like a diamond in the night

Let it fill us up with light

So we can shine upon each other like the stars above

With our greatest miracle- love.

It doesn’t matter who you pray to

Sharing the love is the way to

Let them shine, like diamonds in the night

Let them fill us up with light

So we can shine upon each other like the stars above

With our greatest miracle- love.
