April Meservy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Shine the light)
Stand up and share a little brightness
(Shine the light)
In a world that grows so faint and dim
I believe His light will enter in.
Everybody
(Then the world will change.)
All the people gotta see the light, so be the light
(For the world we pray)
That in our eyes they'll see the light.
All people sitting by the lampstand
(Shine the light)
Let it shine from the valley to the highlands
(Shine the light)
Every boy and girl, every woman and man,
Share the love received from the Maker's hand.
Everybody
Shine the light, don't hide the light! If they find the light
(Then the world will change.)
All the people gotta see the light, so be the light
(For the world we pray)
That in our eyes they'll see the light.
Everybody
Shine the light, don't hide the light! If they find the light
(Then the world will change.)
All the people gotta see the light, so be the light
(For the world we pray)
That in our eyes they'll see the light.
The song "The Light" by April Meservy is a call to action for people to share kindness, love, and positivity in the world. The repetition of the phrase "shine the light" emphasizes the importance of being a beacon of hope for others, especially in a world that can feel dark and overwhelming at times. The lyrics speak to the idea that by sharing the light within ourselves, we can make a difference in the world around us. The song encourages everyone, regardless of age or background, to spread love and hope, and to let the light of others' kindness shine through their own actions.
The chorus of the song, with its repeated phrase "shine the light," serves as a powerful reminder of the impact that even small acts of kindness can have on the world. The lyrics call on listeners to be intentional about their actions, to actively seek out opportunities to share the light within them, and to make a difference in the world through their kindness and positivity. The song ends with the hopeful sentiment that by spreading light and love, we can help to create a better and brighter world for everyone.
