[1, 2, 3]
|
|
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
|
|
What's going on inside of me?
|
I despise my own behavior
|
This only serves to confirm my suspicions
|
That I'm still a man in need of a Savior
|
|
(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
|
Cause all I want is to be in the Light
|
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
|
|
Tell me, what's going on inside of me?
|
I despise my own behavior
|
This only serves to confirm my suspicions
|
That I'm still a man in need of a Savior
|
|
(repeat chorus)
|
|
Honesty becomes me
|
[There's nothing left to lose]
|
The secrets that did run me
|
[In Your presence are defused]
|
Pride has no position
|
[And riches have no worth]
|
The fame that once did cover me
|
[Has been sentenced to this Earth]
|
Has been sentenced to this Earth
|
|
Tell me, what's going on inside of me?
|
I despise my own behavior
|
This only serves to confirm my suspicions
|
That I'm still a man in need of a Savior
|
|
(repeat chorus 2x)
|
|
[There's no other place that I want to be]
|
[No other place that I can see]
|
[A place to be that's just right]
|
[Someday I'm gonna be in the Light]
|
[You are in the Light]
|
[That's where I need to be]
|
[That's right where I need to be]
