October Vigil
Location
October Vigil
Darkness sits so heavy,
but even the deepest night
is lifted by a candle's light.
A single light flickers so fragile,
but even the smallest flame
can light a thousand candles.
The light we share and
bring together in the night
shows us we are not alone.
We send up our prayers tonight
and they lift up the dark
like the lights we hold in our hands.
