Lyrics
LIFT UP MY LIGHT
VERSE 1
I've lived my life among the rabble,
Another face within the crowd,
There's not a road I wouldn't travel
To find a way of standing out,
Because I know you're looking for me
On some jam-packed city street,
But there's no way for you to find me
If I can't get off my feet
CHORUS
So I will lift up my light,
Rise above the shadows,
My illumination
's'gonna fall upon you
I'll lift up my light,
Drive away the darkness,
My illumination
Will create a pathway to your heart.
VERSE 2
Well I've tried countless ways of seeking
But I never seem to find
The kind of love that's worth the keeping,
That feeds the body, soul, and mind,
For too much glitter, games, and glamour
Trap our spirits deep within.
Amid the endless sea of clamor
I raise my voice above the din,
CHORUS
And I will lift up my light,
Rise above the shadows,
My illumination
's'gonna fall upon you
I'll lift up my light,
Drive away the darkness,
My illumination
Will create a pathway to your heart.
BRIDGE
I'm gonna lift up my light
(I'm gonna lift my light, I'm gonna lift my light)
I'm gonna lift up my light
(I'm gonna lift my light, I'm gonna lift my light)
CHORUS
And I will lift up my light,
Rise above the shadows,
My illumination
's'gonna fall upon you
I'll lift up my light,
Drive away the darkness,
My illumination
Will create a pathway to your heart.
