Outer Glow Inner Strength

*Verse 1:*

When the night falls heavy, and the skies grow dim,

And shadows stretch their fingers on the horizon’s brim,

There’s a spark outside that guides me through the storm,

But deeper still inside, there’s warmth that keeps me warm.

*Pre-Chorus:*

Oh, you can chase the stars above or light a crowded street,

But it’s the fire in your heart that makes your life complete.

*Chorus:*

Two lights shining bright — one you see and one unseen,

One glows outside to show the way; one burns within between.

When darkness settles in around and all hope feels thin—

Remember both your outer light and inner flame begin.

*Fiddle solo:*

*Verse 2:*

A lantern swinging softly on an old oak tree,

Can lead you out of places where you’re lost but meant to be—

Yet if you only follow what is lit without inside,

You’ll stumble over questions no candle ever hides.

*Pre-Chorus:*

So hold your hand up high against the chilled night air;

Let both those fires burn strong—the lamp and soul laid bare.

*Chorus:*

Two lights shining bright — one you see and one unseen,

One glows outside to show the way; one burns within between.

When darkness settles in around and all hope feels thin—

Remember both your outer light and inner flame begin.

*Bridge:*

Outer glow can guide us home but won’t keep fear away—

Inner shine reminds us we have strength for each new day!
