Carry Your Candle !


There is a candle in every soul
Some brightly burning, some dark and cold
There is a Spirit who brings fire
Ignites a candle and makes His home

Carry your candle, run to the darkness
Seek out the hopeless, confused and torn
Hold out your candle for all to see it
Take your candle, and go light your world
Take your candle, and go light your world


I remembered today when I lit this candle shown in the photo, on the table in the study, that every time the graduating students at the Christian Medical College, Vellore leave the auditorium after the convocation with a burring candle in their hand,  and wait at the foyer of the final prayer, this song is sung by the choir. 

It started me on a recollection journey of series of experiences thus far, where this song stayed as an inspiration!
