DC Talk - In The Light

I keep trying to find a life,

On my own apart from You.

I am the king of excuses,

I've got one for every selfish thing I do.

Pre-chorus:

What's going on inside of me?

I despise my own behaviour.

This only serves to confirm my suspicions,

That I'm still a man in need of a Saviour.

Chorus:

I wanna be in the Light, as You are in the Light,

I wanna shine like the stars in the Heavens.

Oh Lord, be my Light, and be my salvation.

Cos all I want is to be in the Light, oh oh oh oh oh,

All I want is to be in the Light.

The disease of self runs through my blood,

It's a cancer fatal to my soul.

Every attempt on my behalf has failed,

To bring this sickness under control.

Pre-chorus & Chorus

Honesty becomes me (there's nothing left to lose),

The secrets that did run me (in Your Presence are refused).

Pride has no position (as riches have no worth),

The pain that once did cover me has been sentenced to this earth,

Has been sentenced to this earth.

Pre-chorus & Chorus

There's no other place I want to be no other place,

That I can see a place to be that's just right, home.

It's gonna be, it's gonna be in the Light, and You are in the Light,

It's where I need to be, it's right where I need to be...
