The Light Within

Scripture  

Matthew 5:14–16 (NRSV)  

“You are the light of the world.  

A city built on a hill cannot be hidden.  

No one after lighting a lamp puts it under the bushel basket,  

but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house.  

In the same way, let your light shine before others,  

so that they may see your good works  

and give glory to your Father in heaven.”

Refrain  

The light I carry is not my own.

Poem  

William Blake  

Look on the rising sun: there God does live

And gives his light, and gives his heat away.

And flowers and trees and beasts and men receive

Comfort in morning joy in the noonday.

And we are put on earth a little space,

That we may learn to bear the beams of love...
