The Light Was Worth The Candle Lyrics - Eric Bibb

Of the many gifts I've received in my life 

The finest are the ones money can't buy 

Not long ago, my father gave such a gift to me 

When he shared these words that made me cry 

Son, the light was worth the candle 

The warmth was worth the cold 

The conversation worth the wine 

And what I've learned has been worth growing old 

If I leave this world tomorrow 

Happily I can say 

The light was worth the candle 

At the end of the day

Give it all you've got 

Whatever you do, trust your heart 

The journey's worth more 

Much more than the gold 

Remember when you're reaching 

Reaching so high for the prize 

Keep your feet on the ground 

And hold on to your soul 

Hold on to your soul 

For the light was worth the candle 

The warmth was worth the cold 

The conversation worth the wine 

And what I've learned has been worth growing old

Happily I can say 

The light was worth the candle
