Lantern light.

Shine - when you stumble and fall...GET BACK UP!

Shine- though the world tumbles towards hell and darkness

Shine - even when they do not acknowledge your contribution

Shine - when they belittle and try to make you feel small

Shine - when they disparage and label you distasteful

Shine - when they raise others above you when you deserve the prize

Shine - Because you are made unique, special and highly favored

Shine - even when no one else can see your light

Shine - to fill your soul with divine, heavenly glow

Shine - so the angels can glorify in your magnificence

Shine...Because you are alive with truth and grace

Shine - your smile a deterrent to the unkind, hope for the weary

SHINE - WELL- JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN

LIFT YOUR LANTERN HIGH. WHERE ALL CAN SEE IT

TRIUMPHANTLY SHINING BRIGHT.

ILLUMINATING!

Already winning.
