I keep trying to find a light 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 I wanna be in the light as you are in the light I wanna shine like the stars in the heavens O Lord be my light and be my salvation ’Cause 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 What’s going on … I wanna be in the light … Honesty becomes me The secrets that did run me Pride has no position The fame that once did cover me Has been sentenced to this earth What’s going on … I wanna be in the light … I wanna be in the light … 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 It’s gonna be it’s gonna be in the light As you are in the light That’s right where I want to be That’s right where I want to be
