Luke 11:36 "If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light."

1 John 1:5 "...God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. "

each candle contains a Flame life abounds within its Light Fire when these Flames unite and banishing the darkness warm comfort flows from within drives away the biting cold the wind of division blows extinguishes one candle where once each formed The Fire individuals, yet one this missing Light makes all less less Light, less warmth, comfortless tears of grief fall on the wicks Flames sputter and dim but stay keeping at bay the darkness forever missing your Light

Candle chorus laments just one loss, every one. God is Light and Warmth; candles a fabulous reminder. Cool piece, CW. :o))
