A Penny Candle

It’s just a penny candle,
That’s burning in my room;
A light that grows the brighter,
The thicker falls the gloom.

It’s just a penny candle,
And yet it is no less,
A symbol of the God I love
The faith that I profess.

The wax is God the Father
The wick is God the Son.
The flame the Holy Spirit,
The Candle three-in-one.

It’s just a penny candle,
But like the God of Light,
The glow becomes more golden,
The blacker is the night.

With many peaceful blessings

Geoffrey
