Let Your Light In, Babe Lyrics

Robert Forster ? Let Your Light In, Babe
Intro: G D C
(Capo 9) D A G
Mrs Ellis said. ?There's someone you should meet here in the church?.
I lent my back again, up against the church and went back inside.
There was a woman and a child whom I'd not seen and Mrs Ellis said.
?The woman is a friend, new to this town, a mother and a child?.
Let your light in babe, and don't you be afraid.
I live by myself. A mile from the church and do my work at home.
The house was a gift, given from a friend on whom I used to care.
Named Silius Farm, though it's not a farm, but a house amidst trees.
And Mrs Ellis said, but I stopped her and said. ?They can stay with me?.
Let your light in babe, and don't you be afraid.
Later, Mrs Ellis said. ?Now are mother and child well??
I said. ?They are well.
The mother is in bed. The child is at school and I must be rushing home!?
Let your light in babe, and don't you be afraid.
