can’t be a beacon if your light don’t Shine (VEN 1109) Tony Simmons (Donna Fargo) 1974

You can't
be a beacon if your light don't shine
You can't
be a beacon if your light don't shine

corner lady, DoSaDo
Allemande Left and Weave that Ring
You can't
be a beacon if your light don't shine
Swing that lady once around
and Promenade the line

little light in all of us by God's design
You can't
be a beacon if your light don't shine

ORIGINAL LYRICS
You can't be a beacon if your light don't
shine
You can't be a beacon if your light don't shine
There's a little light in all of us by God's design
But you can't be a beacon if your light don't shine
How can you ask for truth when you do not
truthful live?
How can you ask forgiveness when you don't forgive?
I don't mean to bring you down or speak to you unkind
But you can't be a beacon if your light don't shine
You can't be a beacon if your light don't
shine
You can't be a beacon if your light don't shine
There's a little light in all of us by God's design
But you can't be a beacon if your light don't shine
How can you ask a child to be honest and
true
When he can only judge what's right by what he sees in you?
How can you offer vision yet walk around blind?
No, you can't see a beacon if its light don't shine
You can't be a beacon if your light don't
shine
You can't be a beacon if your light don't shine
There's a little light in all of us by God's design
But you can't be a beacon if your light don't shine
May God's love surround you, may you find a
brighter day
May He grant you the peace you seek in every way
God's light burns in each life, yours and mine
And you can be a beacon if you just let it shine
You can be a beacon if you let it shine
You can be a beacon if you let it shine
There's a little light in all of us by God's design
You can be a beacon if you let it shine
You can be a beacon if you let it shine
You can be a beacon if you let it shine
There's a little light in all of us by God's design
You can be a beacon if you let it shine
You can be a beacon if you let it shine
You can be a beacon if you let it shine
There's a little light in all of us by God's design
You can be a beacon if you let it shine
