1 Love, light a candle in my heart
that I may see inside
the fearful web of selfishness,
of arrogance and pride,
that traps my spirit, snares my will,
entangles me in sin.
Love, light a candle in my heart
that I may see within.

2 Love, light a candle in my heart
that I may see inside
to sweep away this tangled web
in which I try to hide.
Redeem my spirit, free my will,
and help me to begin.
Love, light a candle in my heart
that I may see within.

3 Love, light a candle in my heart
that I may see inside
to find compassion, joyful hope,
and faith may now abide
within the place where once a web
of selfishness had been.
Love, light a candle in my heart
that I may see within.
