Light the Advent candle, two: Think of humble shepherds, who
Filled with wonder at the sight of the child on Christmas night.
Candle, candle, burning bright, Shining in the cold winter night;
Candle, candle, burning bright, Fill our hearts with Christmas light.

Note:  Advent season is a tradition in our church as we wait with  expectation the birth of Jesus Christ. It is seen as a time to prepare our hearts for Christmas and for the eventual return of Christ and the judgment He will bring to the world.
