A Light Ignited

'Turn out the light, '
Said the world around me,
But in my soul
A light had been ignited,
That could not be extinguished,
A light that would burn
Like the strong noonday sun,
Casting an illuminating glow
That would turn
The whole world upside down,
A light ignited
By the Lord Jesus Christ
To burn forever.
