LyricsI walked through shadows, faced my night

But grace lit up a spark, a light What once was broken now burns bright A steady flame in darkest fight

The light I carry, not my own Born of mercy, grace well-known Through every trial, loss, and tear The light I carry shines clear

Not by strength or earned pride But by the One who lives inside He gave me hope, He gave me song A reason now to carry on

The light I carry, not my own Born of mercy, grace well-known Through every trial, loss, and tear The light I carry shines clear

If you see me smiling today It’s not luck or just my way It’s testimony, story true Of what my God can do for you

The light I carry, not my own Born of mercy, grace well-known Through every trial, loss, and tear The light I carry shines clear I’ll let it shine, let it show The light I carry, the love I know

Reflection

Your light doesn’t come from willpower—it’s a reflection of grace. When others see peace in you, hope in you, joy in you—it’s not a show, it’s a story. God’s story. The light you carry isn’t artificial—it’s eternal.

Challenge

Share a testimony or word of encouragement with someone today. Let your light speak louder than your circumstance.

Prayer

Jesus, shine through me. May my life reflect Your love in the dark. Let the story You’ve written in me help light the way for someone else. Amen.
