(Verse 1) Brothers and sisters, every color of the rainbow, We're all His children, wherever we may go. The gifts He has given were meant to be shared, To lift up the broken, to show that we care. Some were given wisdom, some were given grace, Some bring a little sunshine to a troubled place. Some carry the burden when somebody's weak, Some have the words that the broken heart needs. (Chorus) So let your light shine, let your love shine through, There's a little bit of Heaven inside me and you. We don't have to match, we don't have to agree, We're different by design, but we're family. What you have to give might be what someone needs, A little bit of love, a little faith, a little peace. When we lift each other, everybody can see, We're stronger together — we're meant to be free. (Verse 2) Don't hide your blessing, don't bury your flame, Don't think what you carry is too small to make change. A river starts flowing from one little stream, A mountain gets moved when we all share the dream. Your hands might build bridges, mine might plant seeds, Someone else might answer another one's needs. No gift is too little, no heart is too small, When we give what we've got, there's enough for us all. (Chorus) So let your light shine, let your love shine through, There's a little bit of Heaven inside me and you. We don't have to match, we don't have to agree, We're different by design, but we're family. What you have to give might be what someone needs, A little bit of love, a little faith, a little peace. When we lift each other, everybody can see, We're stronger together — we're meant to be free. (Verse 3) There's too much division, too much hate in the air, Too many judging without stopping to care. We're all walking roads that we never have known, So why not make room when we're not on our own? A hand reaching out can change somebody's day, A word full of kindness can show them the way. And the love that we give doesn't cost us a thing, But it might be the hope that makes somebody sing. (Bridge) So tear down the walls, let compassion begin, Stop looking at differences and look deeper within. We're colors on a canvas, we're notes in a song, Different on our own, but together we're strong. And if we use the gifts that He gave us to give, We'll make this world brighter with the way that we live. 'Cause love isn't measured by what we receive, It's measured by how much we're willing to give. (Final Chorus) So let your light shine, let your love shine through, There's a little bit of Heaven inside me and you. We don't have to match, we don't have to agree, We're different by design, but we're family. What you have to give might be what someone needs, A little bit of love, a little faith, a little peace. When we lift each other, everybody can see, We're stronger together — we're meant to be free. (Outro) Brothers and sisters, every color, every name, Different roads behind us, but we're reaching the same. The gifts He has given were meant to be shared, So love one another, and show that you care.
