Oil in my lamp! (Matthew 25:1-12)
On a pilgrim journey to Jerusalem Bearing my lamp with me; The light from my lamp flickered Casting long shadows. My lamp; my source of light Guiding my path so I won't stumble. As I journeyed on, it burned slowly and slowly Until it became a little flicker! It couldn't go further than a mile. It burned out! In thick darkness I wallowed. Evil permeated the air! I groped! I stumbled! I fell! I held my cold lamp to my breast As groans escaped my lips. Sinking to my feet, I cried out for help. "Give me oil in my lamp, keep me burning" And out of the darkness, a light shone. It dispelled the darkness. It gave me hope. It lit my life. My lamp burned. My heart burned! Cause I had oil in my lamp! This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine! Written By: Igho Divine
