306. This Little Light of Mine

1 This little light of mine,
I’m gonna let it shine;
This little light of mine,
I’m gonna let it shine;
This little light of mine,
I’m gonna let it shine,
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

2 Ev’rywhere I go,
I’m gonna let it shine;
Ev’rywhere I go,
I’m gonna let it shine;
Ev’ry where I go,
I’m gonna let it shine,
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

3 Jesus gave it to me,
I’m gonna let it shine;
Jesus gave it to me,
I’m gonna let it shine;
Jesus gave it to me,
I’m gonna let it shine,
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.
