|
they can't say anythin they want to say
|
try to brin me down
|
but i will not allow
|
anyone to succeed
|
hangin clouds over me
|
and they can try hard to make me feel
|
that i don't matter at all
|
but i refuse to falter
|
in what i believe
|
or lose faith in my dreams
|
|
((chorus))
|
'cause there's a light in me
|
that shines brightly
|
they can try
|
but they can't take that away from me
|
from me
|
|
they can do anythin they want to you
|
if you let them in
|
but they won't ever win
|
if you clin to your pride
|
and just push them asidei have learned there's an inner peace i own
|
somethin in my soul
|
that they cannot possese
|
so i won't be afraid
|
and darkness will fade
|
|
((chorus))
|
|
no
|
they can't take this
|
prrecious love
|
i'll always have inside me
|
certainly the Lord will guide me
|
where i need to go
|
they can say anythin they want to say
|
try to bteak me down
|
but i won't face the ground
|
i will rise steadily
|
sailin out of their reach
|
oh Lord
|
they do try hard to make me feel
|
that i don't matter at all
|
but i refuse to falter
|
in what i believe
|
or lose faith in my dreams
|
'cause there's a light in me
|
that shines brightly
|
they can try
|
but they can't take that away from me
|
from me
|
