Little Light of Mine was written in the 1920s as a song for children by a white northern pastor/music teacher, Harry Dixon Loes.  It became a Civil Rights anthem, generally assumed to be a symbolic old slave song from the south. More info: http://www.stephengriffith.com/folksongindex/this-little-light-of-mine/
