Tamara Calder (Born December 1985 Singer/Songwriter) From the parish of Clarendon, Jamaica. The daughter of a Minister and an Evangelist. Tamara is somewhat known as 'a church baby'. Grown in the church and given to the service of the Lord. Baptized at the age of 11 she was quickly involved in musical activities in not only her church but other neighboring community churches also. Tamara began pursuing her singing career in 2003 recruited by Nu Lyfe Muzik Productions in Grand Cayman. Ms. Calder represented Nu Lyfe as one of their three vocalists in early 2004, after which she began exposing her lyrical talents as a songwriter. In 2008,three (3) Singles were released "Light Up The World", "Lift Up Your Head" and "Shelter of Love" all written and sung by her. Tamara has since recorded with other fellow gospel artistes such as: Clifford Henry representing Katalys Crew, Ancient Priest, JCDC's second place winner and Jamaica's Christian rappers S.O.P. Tamara places thought-provoking lyrics as the center of attention in her music and above vocal talent places tremendous emphasis on the importance of her duty to minister and not entertain. Tamara continues to strive, to bring a musical message to a changing world. This music should be for ministry and for the glory of God not for 'entertainment' or for my benefit." Jesus said "I come not to call the righteous but sinners to repentance so that is the direction i intend to take. It may become controversial to some but this is what the life of Christ was all about.

Story behind the song
Light and darkness cannot share the same space let US the children of God be like a LIGHT to the world filling every corner and every dark place with our light of salvation which is Christ Jesus.
Lyrics
(LANGUAGE: Some sections contain Jamaican Creole) INTRODUCTION VERSE 1: Like a city that is set up a hill cannot be hidden Let your light so shine so that men may be forgiven Of the guilt, of the shame, all the hurt of the past Remember only what you do for Christ will last Open your heart and listen to me Wherever there is light darkness cannot be Hold up your light let darkness disappear All God's people far and near! CHORUS: All the people in the crowd Light up the world Shout it out loud Light up the world Lift your voice and sing Light up the world Let your praises ring Light up the world Like a beacon in the night Light up the world Shine your light bright Light up the world Lift your voices high Light up the world Take it to the sky Light up the world VERSE 2: You know the eyes of the Lord Dem a look upon you Be careful of the things that you hide and do When di light dem lock off and everybody gone sleep Out a door inna dark you a sneak and a creep Lovers of darkness i'm talking to you When mi light start shine boy! mi sorry for you No matter how you feel from man's eyes you a hide Whatever inna darkness must come to light BRIDGE: The Lord's the light of my salvation He is the lamp unto my feet (And the light to my path) (repeat) Tun it up! Tun it up! (repeat) Mek wi light up the world (repeat) Copyright (c) Nu Lyfe Muzik Productions 2009
