A Little Lamp

A Little Lamp
If you are the fire, Oh Lord
Make me a little lamp
That brightens up the space around
With all the wick and oil it has
Though small, insignificant
Though not the mighty forest fire
Though not the mammoth disc
That adorns the sky
But still, a source of light
A guide
Something that cuts through darkness
And beats the sickly cold
Something that spreads your divinity
And spread calm around it
If you are the fire, Oh lord
Make me a little lamp.
