7 Candles

Candles are beautiful. I love them. I love to stare at their flame as it flickers. I love what they often represent. Tonight I light 7 candles because Jesus is my light. As long as my light is forever I can get through anything life throws at me.

7 Candles

I light a candle of repentance

As I kneel to pray for deliverance

and pray for Him to shed some light

on my messed up day

I ended my day in darkness like the night

I must now confess before I sleep all the sins I do keep

I light a candle for forgiveness

for all the sins I do confess

Conviction is near

The Lord's wrath I do fear

I am truly sorry for all I've done

I light a candle for mercy and grace

Even though I do sin

His anger holds no place

His love will conquer all

and He will catch me when I fall

I light a candle for hope

as I begin a new day

in hopes My Lord will pave my way

as I travel down the road to serve

and that He'll guide me around each curve

I light a candle for faith

that my daily bread He will bring

filled with His strength and wisdom for my day

and to Him praises I will forever sing

I light a candle for love

A love so grand

that it can only come from God's Mighty Hand

May it be forever flowing

into our hearts and forever will this candle stay glowing

I light a candle in remembrance

of my second chance

For God so loved the world He sent is only son

so that His will could be done

We are loved and free

Keep this candle flame within our hearts

burning forever

and He will be there with us throughout each and every endeavour.

John 8:12When Jesus spoke to the people again he said "I am the light of the world, Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life"
