From here.

The Light from the Lighthouse

Let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.
Oh, let it shine on; oh, let it shine on;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.
Let it shine on; oh, let it shine on;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.

I've got that true religion, ain't no doubt about it;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.
I've got that true religion, gonna sing and shout it;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.

Oh, let it shine on; oh, let it shine on;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.
Let it shine on; oh, let it shine on;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.

I see that Jordan River, it's chilly and cold;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.
It really chills my body, but not my soul;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.

Oh, let it shine on; oh, let it shine on;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.
Let it shine on; oh, let it shine on;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.

Let it shine on; oh, let it shine on;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.
Let it shine on; oh, let it shine, oh, let it shine;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.

Let it shine on; oh, let it shine on;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.
Let it shine on; oh, let it shine on;
Oh, let the light from your lighthouse shine on me.

Let it shine, let it shine on me.

Cheers!
Ian

Is this the one you're looking for?

LIGHTHOUSE

As featured on Bob Zentz's "Hove To and Drifting" album

When the daylight fades and the shadows fall,
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And the weather watch spies a comin' squall.
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And the sun sinks low in a troubled sea,
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
And the night winds blow and the rain falls free.
Let the light from the lighthouse shine on me

Chorus:
Shine on me, shine on me,
let the light from the lighthouse shine on me
Shine on me, shine on me,
let the light from the lighthouse shine on me

And the clouds boil black and the wind will wail,
And you're caught in the teeth of a livin' gale,
Then your sailor's heart is filled with fear,
When the sound of the surf on the rocks is near.

Chorus

Then the wind drops off and the seas becalm,
But the fog is thickest before the dawn,
Then the new sun burns that fog away,
From the darkest night comes the brightest day.

When your ship is safe in port again.
You can thank the keeper, you can thank the flame,

Chorus

WD

The verse text I heard at the National is closer in content to Ian C's version, but WD's version scans better!

Cheers for the .wav file WD! You're tune harmonises pretty much exactly with the one I've (half) remembered - Great stuff!

Cheers, EJ
