Wherever there is darkness
Together we’ll bring light
Let’s shine on all God’s children
Shine with all your might
For those who feel forgotten
Who were lost along their way
This lights a new beginning
Shining bright it’s there
to light the way

(A thousand points of light)
Shining everywhere
All across America
Show people that we care
So let your light so shine
Helping others find their way
We can turn the darkest night
Into the brightest day

We can make this light shine brighter
By reaching out our hand
To the poor and to the needy
All throughout this land
Let’s combine our lights together
Into one enormous ray
This lights a new beginning
Shining bright it’s there to light the way

(A thousand points of light)
Shining everywhere
All across America
Show people that we care
So let your light so shine
Helping others find their way
We can turn the darkest night
Into the brightest day
All across America
People reaching out their hands
Bring your light and join our chorus
Everyone shine bright
throughout this land

A thousand points of light
Shining everywhere
All across America
Show people that we care
So let your light so shine
Helping others find their way
We can turn the darkest night
Into the brightest day

(A thousand points of light)
Shining everywhere
All across America
