We Light a Candle

Intro: na na na na na na na
Tonight I light a candle, watch the flicker of the flam
The bagpipes play, the minstrel sings, we softly call your name
We line the path with tributes, not one forgotten soul
We honor those survivors, remember angels in the glow
We light a candle,
for all the loved ones lost
We light a candle,
For survivors who live on
We light a candle,
Stand together with our dream
We light a candle
And like angels we all sing
Young and old their stories told they walk right through the pain
Heads held high, its in their eyes, lives forever changed
Faith is strong, the fight goes on, tomorrow’s strife unsure
But tonight we dream on angels wings we’ve got to find a cure
We light a candle,
for all the loved ones lost
We light a candle,
For survivors who live on
We light a candle,
Stand together with our dream
We light a candle
And like angels we all sing
And in our cries a lullaby for what our heroes must endure
We say a prayer for God’s good grace, for wisdom and a cure
We light a candle,
for all the loved ones lost
We light a candle,
For survivors who live on
We light a candle,
Stand together with our dream
We light a candle
And like angels we all sing
