"This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine / Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine."
The song is sung around the world, with the simple lyrics and tune resonating with all ages. Harry Dixon Loes was a musical composer and teacher, who wrote a popular adaptation of the song "This Little Light of Mine" in the 1940s but never copyrighted or claimed credit for writing the original, which remains of unknown origin.
