🎵 "Little Light"
Lyrics for a newborn son
(Verse 1)
You came into this world so small,
Eyes wide open, taking in it all.
I held you close, you made no sound,
Just breathing soft, safe and sound.
(Pre-Chorus)
And I don't know the road ahead,
But I’ll walk it strong, like I always said.
With your tiny hand wrapped around my thumb,
My whole life has just begun.
(Chorus)
You’re my little light in the dark,
Brand new flame, a beating heart.
Every cry, every smile, every sigh —
You're the reason I reach so high.
I don't have all the answers yet,
But I’ll give you all I’ve got to give.
Welcome to the world, my son,
Your story’s just begun.
(Verse 2)
One day you'll fall and scrape your knee,
Ask me things like, “Who will I be?”
I won’t pretend to always know,
But I’ll be there as you grow.
(Pre-Chorus)
The days will rush, the nights may blur,
But I’ll hold on to who you were.
And cheer you on through every turn,
In your eyes, there's so much to learn.
(Chorus)
You’re my little light in the dark,
Brand new flame, a beating heart.
Every cry, every smile, every sigh —
You're the reason I reach so high.
I don’t have all the answers yet,
But I’ll give you all I’ve got to give.
Welcome to the world, my son,
Your story’s just begun.
(Bridge)
And if the world feels big and loud,
I’ll be your calm, I’ll be your ground.
You don’t have to be anything more
Than my boy — who I adore.
(Final Chorus)
You’re my little light in the dark,
My brightest day, my deepest spark.
Every dream, every night, every run —
I’ll be there, proud of who you’ve become.
No, I don’t have all the answers yet,
But I’ll give you all I’ve got to give.
Welcome to the world, my son,
Your story’s just begun.
