           D               G            D
There is a point, when you cannot walk away, 
         G                D                     Em7                A
When you have to stand up straight and tall and mean the words you say
           D                              G                 D       A
There is a point you must decide, just to do it 'cause it's right
Bm                A               G
That's when you become a point of light
 
 
           D              G             D
There is a darkness, that everyone must face
   G                    D                 Em7           A
It wants to take what's good and fair and lay it all to waste
         D                G             D      A
And that darkness, covers everything in sight
  Bm             A               G        A7
Until it meets a single point of light. 
  
 
CHORUS: 
D                 G        D        G      D           G       A
All it takes is a point of light, a ray of hope in the darkest night.
       D                        G              D
If you see what's wrong and you try to make it right
G        D    A        G
You will be a point of light.
 
                        
          D             G              D
There are heroes, whose names we never hear
  G         D       Em7        A
A dedicated army of quiet volunteers
         D                                G               D
Reaching out to feed the hungry, reaching out to save the land
Bm              A                 G
Reaching out to help their fellow man.

B         E                A                  E    
There are dreamers who are making dreams come true
       A                 E                 Gbm7               B
Taking time to teach the children, there's nothing they can't do.
       E                               A                 E     B
Giving shelter to the homeless, giving hope to those without.
Dbm             B                A                     
Isn't that what this land's all about.
 
 
BRIDGE:
Dbm                 E
One by one from the mountains to the sea,
A         E                 Gbm7           Gbm7    B
Points of light are calling out to you and me.
 
 
CHORUS:
E   B  E          A        E        A      E           A       B
All it takes is a point of light, a ray of hope in the darkest night.
       E                        A              E
If you see what's wrong and you try to make it right
A        E    B        A
You will be a point of light.
       E    B     E             A              E
If you see what's wrong and you try to make it right
A        E    B        A      E
You will be a point of light.
