You light the light in my dark places
The brightest smile in a sea of faces
Oh, You reached me and You calmed me down
Just when I thought I’d drown
You lit a flame and inside, I don’t know how
They cannot turn the light out on me now

You put a song in my long silence
And You moved my feet when I could not dance
Oh, You caught me just when I fell
You stilled my hell of storms
You colored all my greys, I don’t know how
But they cannot turn the light out on me now

Burn on, oh, lovely light
Burn on, there’s goes the night
Burn on, till all the universe
Is shining in Your light
Burn on, burn on, burn on

You light the light in my dark places
You are the brightest smile in a sea of faces
Oh, You reached me and You calmed me down
Just when I thought I’d drown
You lit a flame and inside, I don’t know how
But they cannot turn the light out on me now

Burn on, oh, lovely light
Burn on, there’s goes the night
Burn on, till all the universe
Is shining in Your light
Burn on, burn on, burn on

Burn on, oh, lovely light
Burn on, there’s goes the night
Burn on, oh, lovely light
Burn on, there’s goes the night…
