This Little Light of Mine

This Little Light of Mine is an American gospel song that emerged in the 1920s and became a widely loved sing-along, with a well-known arrangement often credited to Harry Dixon Loes. Inspired by the Gospel image of a lamp that must not be hidden under a bushel, it later became a powerful anthem of the civil rights movement.
