In the Light

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.

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 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. 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.
