Intro:       
             (Capo 9)        
        
                                                                 
    Mrs Ellis said. “There’s someone you should meet here in the church”. 
                                                                 
    I lent my back again, up against the church and went back inside. 
                                                                
    There was a woman and a child whom I’d not seen and Mrs Ellis said. 
                                                            
    “The woman is a friend, new to this town, a mother and a child”.

          Let your light in babe,       and don’t you be afraid.
 
                                                                                    
    I live by myself. A mile from the church and do my work at home. 
                                                                              
    The house was a gift, given from a friend on whom I used to care. 
                                                                
    Named Silius Farm, though it’s not a farm, but a house amidst trees. 
                                                                             
   And Mrs Ellis said, but I stopped her and said. “They can stay with me”.

          Let your light in babe,       and don’t you be afraid. 

                                                                               
     Later, Mrs Ellis said. ‘Now are mother and child well?” 
                     
I said. “They are well. 
                                                                 
  The mother is in bed. The child is at school and I must be rushing home!”

          Let your light in babe,       and don’t you be afraid.
