Light One Candle 歌詞
Light One Candle - Peter, Paul & Mary (彼得、保羅和瑪麗)
Light one candle for the
Maccabee children
Give thanks that their
Light didn't die;
Light one candle for the
Pain they endured
When their right
To exist was denied;
Light one candle
For the terrible sacrifice
Justice and freedom demand;
Light one candle
For the wisdom to know
When the peacemaker's
Time is at hand!
Don't let the light go out,
It's lasted for so many years!
Don't let the light go out!
Let it shine through
Our love and our tears!
Light one candle for the
Strength that we need
To never become our own foe;
Light one candle
For those who are suff'ring
The pain that
We learned long ago;
Light one candle for all
We believe in,
That anger not tear us apart;
And light one candle
To bind us together
With peace as
The song in our heart!
Don't let the light go out,
It's lasted for so many years!
Don't let the light go out!
Let it shine through
Our love and our tears!
Don't let the light go out,
It's lasted for so many years!
Don't let the light go out!
Let it shine through
Our love and our tears!
What is the memory
That's valued so highly
That we keep it alive in that flame?
What's the commitment
To those who have died?
We cry out "they've
Not died in vain,"
We have come this far,
Always believing
That justice will
Somehow prevail;
This is the burden
And This is the promise,
This is why we will not fail!
Don't let the light go out,
It's lasted for so many years!
Don't let the light go out!
Let it shine through
Our love and our tears!
Don't let the light go out,
It's lasted for so many years!
Don't let the light go out!
Let it shine through
Our love and our tears!
Don't let the light go out!
Don't let the light go out!
Don't let the light go out!
