In The Light - DC Talk

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 

What's going on inside of me? 
I despise my own behaviour 
This only serves to confirm my suspicions 
That I'm still a man in need of a Saviour 

CHORUS: 
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 

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 

Tell me, what's going on inside of me? 
I despise my own behaviour 
This only serves to confirm my suspicions 
That I'm still a man in need of a Saviour 

Honesty becomes me 
[There's nothing left to lose] 
The secrets that did run me 
[In Your presence are defused] 
Pride has no position 
[And riches have no worth] 
The fame that once did cover me 
[Has been sentenced to this Earth] 
Has been sentenced to this Earth 

Tell me, what's going on inside of me? 
I despise my own behaviour 
This only serves to confirm my suspicions 
That I'm still a man in need of a Saviour 

[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] 
[Someday I'm gonna be in the Light] 
[You are in the Light] 
[That's where I need to be] 
[That's right where I need to be]
