In The Light lyrics

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)
