Christ Candle for Good Friday

 

LIGHTING THE CHRIST CANDLE
The road grows dark, storm clouds are on the horizon
We light a candle to guide us through the coming storm
As the flame flickers in our midst,
we come to remember the story, we come to weather the storm together.

EXTINGUISHING THE CHRIST CANDLE
The storm has broken, the deed is done.
The cross stands defiant, the light has gone out.
But we wait with hope, we watch the horizon,
Beyond the storm another dawn awaits
