Hi John,

There are two versions I know, a long version and a short version:

Long:

Chorus:
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine,
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine,
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine,
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

1.
The light that shines is the light of love,
Lights the darkness from above.
It shines on me and it shines on you
And shows what the power of love can do.
I'm gonna shine my light both far and near,
I'm gonna shine my light both bright and clear
Where there's a dark corner in this land,
I'm gonna let my little light shine.

2.
On Monday he gave me the gift of love,
Tuesday, peace came from above.
On Wednesday He told me to have more faith,
On Thursday He gave me a little more grace.
Friday, He told me to watch and pray,
Saturday, He told me just what to say.
On Sunday He gave me the power divine
To let my little light shine.

Short:

This little light of mine
I'm going to let it shine
Oh, this little light of mine
I'm going to let it shine
Hallelujah
This little light of mine
I'm going to let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

Ev'ry where I go
I'm going to let it shine
Oh, ev'ry where I go
I'm going to let it shine
Hallelujah
Ev'ry where I go
I'm going to let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

Hope it helps. God bless!
Steve

This little light of mine,
I'm going to let it shine,
This little light of mine,
I'm going to let it shine.
This little light of mine,
I'm going to let it shine,
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

The next verses changes in different area of the country but,

2)Hide it under a bushel, NO!
I'm going to let it shine.

3)Won't let Satan blow it out,
I'm going to let it shine.

4)Let it shine till Jesus comes
I'm going to let it shine.

5)Shine all over (Insert town, state, etc.)
I'm going to let it shine.

Hope this is what you are looking for.

God bless!!
