Dining Room Light

Dining room light with dimmest glow,

Tell me of the stories you know.

Remind me of our Christmas feast,

And of prayers of faith increased;

Tell me of guests who come and go,

Dining room light with dimmest glow.

Night after night you spend your light,

Guiding us through your room.

Dawn after dawn, you still go on,

Watching light o’erthrow gloom.
