This Little Light of Mine

As a Mom, I have thoughts, hopes, dreams for my precious children; however, I know that I am not in control of their futures. All I can do is be the best Mom that I possibly can be and PRAY, PRAY, PRAY for them EVERY day. I pray every day that no matter what is going on in their lives, regardless of successes and failures, when things are going well and when things are really tough that Eli, Chase and Reed will always let their light shine for Jesus. There is a new song playing on the radio called This Little Light of Mine by Addison Road and I just LOVE it!! Eli and Chase enjoy hearing it too. I think it captures my prayer for their lives. The words are below. Let your light shine, sweet boys!!!!

There's a little flame inside us all
Some shine bright
Some shine small
The rains will come
And the waters rise
But don't you ever lose your light

In this life you will know
Love and pain
Joy and sorrow
So when it hurts
When times get hard
Don't forget whose child you are

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine

May you live each day
With no regret
Make the most of every chance you get
Let your eyes get wide
When you look at the stars
With the same sense of wonder as a child's heart

With the ones you love-

Treasure the time
And for those who are gone
Keep the memories alive

Hold on to your dreams
Don't you ever let go
There's a fire inside you
Burning with hope

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine

There will be days when you wanna give up
When the clouds settle in
But after the rain comes the sun
Don't you ever forget
Don't forget
Don't, don't forget

One day there will be no more pain
And we will finally see Jesus' face
So until then I'm gonna try
To brave the dark
And let my little light shine

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine

Gonna let it shine
Oh, shine
Gonna let it shine
There's a little light inside us all
