For how long shall they call these the last days?
Fulfilling the very prophecies they preach
Those were our grandmothers you burnt at the stake
Calling their midwifery witchery
No longer will I drink your water dran from well of sorrow
Oh God don’t feed the bread of your angry today and sad tomorrow
I won’t curse this darkness anymore
That’s what I was given this here light for
This little light of mine
Said I’m gonna let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
let it shine all the time
Sailing on your ships across a sea of tears
Wanting to conquer your last frontier our mentality
I won’t drink water drawn from wells of sorrow
Nor will I eat your bread of angry today and sad tomorrow
I won’t curse this darkness anymore
Oh god what do I do it for
I said this little light of mine said I’m gonna let it shine
