Rain falls soft on the island ground
Tears from heaven a mournful sound
I walk alone look to the skies
Millions of lights like silent cries
Tropical breeze through the palm trees sway
A heavy heart on this rainy day
The lights above they flicker and dance
Fragile lives in a fleeting glance
How far will they reach how long will they stay?
How many souls will be taken away?
Oh I pray for peace for love to rise
Let no more lights fade from the skies
Let the lights stay aglow forevermore
No more battles no more war
Each shining light a life a name
Each one fading brings endless pain
Oh Lord we cry let hatred cease
Fill our hearts with lasting peace
Let the lights stay aglow shining bright
A beacon of hope through the darkest night
Steps splash in the puddles near
A quiet world yet filled with fear
Each flash above tells a story untold
Of dreams and lives so brave so bold
But war's cold hand takes them away
Turning hope to night from day
Oh how I wish the skies would stay
Filled with light that never fades
Let the lights stay aglow forevermore
No more battles no more war
Each shining light a life a name
Each one fading brings endless pain
Oh Lord we cry let hatred cease
Fill our hearts with lasting peace
Let the lights stay aglow shining bright
A beacon of hope through the darkest night
Father hear our desperate plea
Heal the world let it be free
Teach us love to build not break
To give not take for mercy's sake
Oh let the rain wash the pain away
And the lights shine brighter every day
For every soul is a gift divine
Let their glow forever shine
Oh hear the skies they softly weep
For the lives we couldn't keep
But together we can make it right
Let every light stay in the night
Let the lights stay aglow forevermore
No more battles no more war
Each shining light a life a name
Each one fading brings endless pain
Oh Lord we cry let hatred cease
Fill our hearts with lasting peace
Let the lights stay aglow shining bright
A beacon of hope through the darkest night
Rain falls still on the island shore
But my prayer will rise forevermore
For every light is a life to save
Let no more fade no more graves
Oh let the lights stay aglow
Let the lights stay aglow
Oh let the lights stay aglow
