I've placed a bunch of replies to previous comments because the insistence that this is song is an absolute, undeniable reference to Jeebus is total hooey. C'mon... not EVERYTHING relates back to your crutch... er, religion.
How about this: The world can be dark, and storms of all types can rage about us all the time. And it's easier to find your way in the dark and back home when there a light to guide you. Fine... the "light" could be interpreted as God, or Jesus... but why - WHY - would that light ever shut off?
Perhaps the song is just a request to someone you love who loves you back. Leave a light on for me... i.e. let me know you've got my back.
