Light the Advent Candle

1. Light the Ad - vent can – dle, one; Now the wait – ing has be – gun;

We have start – ed on our way, Time to think of Christ - mas day.

CHORUS:

Candle, candle, burning bright, Shining in the cold winter night;

Candle, candle, burning bright, Fill our hearts with Christmas light.

2. Light the Advent candle, two; Think of the humble shepherds, who

Filled with wonder at the sight Of the child on Christmas night.

REPEAT CHORUS

3. Light the Advent candle, three; Think of heav’n – ly har – mo – ny;

Angels sing – ing “peace on earth”; At the blessed Savior’s birth.

REPEAT CHORUS

4. Light the Advent candle, four; Think of joy forevermore

Christ – child in a stable born, Gift of love that Christ – mas morn.

REPEAT CHORUS

5. Light the Christ – mas can – dle, now; Sing of donkey, sheep, and cow;

Birth – day can – dles for the King, Let the Al – le – lu - las ring.
