Text Translation

This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.
Everywhere I go, I’m gonna let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.
All day and all night, I’m gonna let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.
My God gave it to me, I’m gonna let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.
—Traditional Spiritual
