There’s a Light in the Window

Lyrics

(Folk song)

1.There’s a light in the window,
There’s a light in the window,
There’s a light in the window for me.

2. There is somebody waiting,
There is somebody waiting,
There is somebody waiting for me.

3. Choose the two, leave the other…

4. Swing the one, leave the other…

5. Now the story, it is told,
You are left out in the cold,
And there’s somebody waiting for me.

Circle Game

Formation: Students stand in a circle (holding hands) with one student (“It”) standing in the middle.

Verse 1 – Students circle left while “It” walks inside the circle in the opposite direction.

Verse 2 – Students circle right while “It” walks inside the circle in the opposite direction.

Verse 3 – “It” chooses 2 students, who join “It” in the middle, join hands, and walk to the left. Other students clap on the beat.

Verse 4 – “It” swings one of the other students in the middle. Other students clap on the beat.

Verse 5 – The student in the middle who did not swing becomes the new “It” and the game begins again.
