LIGHT ONE CANDLE FOR THE PEOPLE OF HAITI

TONIGHT, LIGHT ONE CANDLE FOR THE PEOPLE OF HAITI, AND RISE UP SINGING

"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 suffering
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!"

Peter Yarrow, et. al.
