Guard Your Candle (Parody of "Hard to Handle") |
| He saved me, here I am -- I’m a man God redeemed |
| My candle is much too hot to be locked up at home with me |
| I can drop a bushel on it that I got from the corner store |
| But when my wick stops glowin' I’m only a glob of some wax for floors |
| Sure, some things will come tryin' to snuff it |
| They can’t snuff it if you trust the Lord above and |
| Give it everything -- never hide your candle |
| 'Cause your Papa wants to show off His handiwork, yes, uh, now |
| I know He’s the light of the world, and I’m a lamp He made to share it |
| I know He’s got some other lamps, but we can all do better than this |
| Hey, my lamp don’t need a shade I’m gonna illuminate the world He made |
| Now’s not the time to cover Jesus up so make sure that they see |
| Boy they’ll come along in time tryin' to snuff it |
| I ain’t nothin' if I can’t stand sufferin' |
| Give it everything -- never hide your candle |
| 'Cause your Papa wants to show off His handiwork, yes, uh, now |
| Yeah, guard your candle now |
| He saved me — here I am -- look in Matthew 5:14 |
| I’m a city up on top of a mountain for the world to see |
| I know God He put me up there, and I got some important chores |
| When I get those done then all you are gonna come and glorify the Lord |
| Sure they’ll come along in time tryin' to snuff it |
| I ain’t bluffin', man, I’m quite sure of it |
| Give it everything -- never hide your candle |
| 'Cause your Papa wants to show off His handiwork, yes, uh, now |
| Ah, guard your candle now |
| Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| LEAD |
| Boy they’ll come along in time tryin' to snuff it |
| I ain’t runnin' like a scared Miss Muffet |
| Give it everything -- never hide your candle |
| 'Cause your Papa wants to show off His handiwork, yes, uh, now |
| Guard your candle now |
| Baby, don’t snuff it |
| Baby, baby |
| If you love Him — let’s see more of Him |
| Make it a habit |
| Oh yeah — guard your candle |
