Have you thought about that yet?
Some thoughts to get you thinking towards making your plan

Will you use candles? They are ok, however, not a lot of light emanates from them, so if you are wanting to read, prepare food or clean up dinner, you will need a lot of them to do the job.
What about oil lamps?

They give off more light than candles, and.......you can use kerosene in them or a fuel called Clean Heat. You can get many different sizes, colors and styles at Lehman's
Don't forget to get extra wicks & mantles
Maybe oil lanterns will work for you?

Great for outdoor chores and they put out a fair amount of light. Take a look at Lehmans for more information about oil lanterns. You will need to have extra wicks with them as well.
What about LED lanterns?

They are amazing. We have a dear friend who tested this particular lantern from Cabelas. He left it on for a month and it was still going strong. It takes 4- D cell batteries. You would want to store the batteries separate from the lantern unless you are using it a lot. Also, be sure to have extra batteries on hand.
Solar is another option
One of my favorites is the Goal Zero
You will be set up with lots of light.
