You think you're alone
there in your silent storm
but I've seen
the tears you've cried
Falling down and trying to drown
The flame of hope inside
Let me tell you now,tell you now
When you're walking
in the dead of night
And your soul is churning
When your hope seems
out of sight
Keep the candle burning
All it takes is one steady heart
in a world that's turning
Shine a light and pierce
the dark
Keep the candle burning
Keep the candle burning
<Intelrude>
When you're down
and you're discouraged
When the darkness
clouds your view
You've got to gather
up your courage
You know the Lord
is gonna see you through
Let me tell you now
Tell you now
When you're walking
in the dead of night
And your soul is churning
When your hope seems
out of sight
Keep the candle burning
All it takes is one steady heart
in a world that's turning
Shine a light and pierce
the dark
Keep the candle burning
Keep the candle burning
<Intelrude>
One ray of light always
breaks through
Follow wherever He takes you
Wherever He takes you
When you're walking
in the dead of night
And your soul is churning
When your hope seems
out of sight
Keep the candle burning
All it takes is one steady heart
in a world that's turning
Shine a light and pierce
the dark
Keep the candle burning
When you're walking
in the dead of night
And your soul is churning
hope seems out of sight
Keep the candle burning
takes is one steady heart
in a world that's turning
Shine a light and pierce
the dark
Keep the candle burning
Keep the candle burning
Keep the candle burning
Keep the candle burning
Keep the candle burning
takes is one steady heart
one steady heart
in a world that's turning
Keep the candle burning
