Living my life in the darkness
Lying awake, trembling, shaking, wondering why
Ripping off, stealing, robbing, beating
If it goes on like this I’ll surely die
So on my knees, “God please help me,
Forgive me, save me, show me what’s right
Wondering, praying, asking – knowing
God would let me see the light
Thank-you for coming straight from heaven
Praise You, worship You, exalt You on high
Jesus, cross, death, resurrection
Then on a cloud up to the sky
Living my life in Your Brightness
Sleeping peacefully, knowing why
Loving, caring, forgiving, serving
For in my Savior I cannot die
