Oh, let your little light shineLet your little light shineShine on Vegas and Wall StreetPlace your betsShine on all the fishermenWith nothing in their netsShine on rising oceans and evaporating seasShine on our Frankenstein technologiesShine on scienceWith its tunnel vision, tunnel visionShine on fertile farmlandsBuried under subdivisions
Oh, let your little light shineOh, let your little light shineShine on the dazzling darknessThat restores us in deep sleepShine on what we throw awayAnd what we keep
Shine on Reverend PearsonWho threw awayThe vain old GodAnd kept Dickens and Rembrandt and BeethovenAnd fresh plowed sodShine on good earth, good air, good waterAnd a safe placeFor kids to playShine on bombs explodingHalf a mile away
Oh, let your little light shineLet your little light shine, shine, shineShine on worldwide traffic jamsHonking day and nightShine on another assholePassing on the rightShine on all the red light runnersBusy talking on their cell phonesShine on the Catholic ChurchAnd the prisons that it ownsShine on all the ChurchesThey all love less and lessShine on a hopeful girlIn a dreamy dress
Oh, let your little light shineShine, shine, shineLet your little light shineShine on good humorShine on good willShine on lousy leadershipLicensed to killShine on dying soldiersIn patriotic painShine on mass destructionIn some God's nameShine on the pioneersThose seekers of mental healthCraving simplicityThey traveled inwardPast themselvesLet their little lights shineMay all their little lights shine
