Burn This as a Light
Psalms 30:5, 146–150; Matthew 25:4; Revelation 22
When journeying through your dark night
Burn this as a light
Until the dawn horizon . . .
What God has voiced inside you . . .
Creation all about you . . .
The song of children laughing . . .
The sound of people singing . . .
The morning star arises . . .
Raising our joys from sorrows . . .
The tree of life bearing fruit . . .
The healing of the nations . . .
When you come to take us home
We’ll lay our oil lamps down
In the abiding light of the lamb . . .
Beside your glorified body . . .
Healed by the holy hands of love . . .
The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
