Bearers Of The Light

(chorus)

the light we must bear is

the light we must share

is the light that

illumines the darkness

the promise is kept give

us strength to accept

this burden of sharing the

light

you will walk beside us a

strong friend Barnabas

you will be that sure

shoulder to lean on

and our light tells the

darkness to be gone

chorus

you will come after me

this young Timothy

looking for someone to

guide him

i will kindle his light,

make him strong for the

fight

i will promise to be there

beside him

chorus

and so we must claim in

His powerful name

the promise the bible has

spoken

we must understand that a

cord of three strands

cannot be easily broken

a great lead of us all a

true mentor a Paul

who has travelled this

road on before us

he will make good the

pledge to take the light

on ahead

we can follow his

footsteps before us

chorus

the promise is kept give

us strength to accept

this burden of sharing the

light
