May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. Psalm 19:14


"So shine your light and, let the whole world see"
We're singing for the glory of the risen King
And I am speaking for the understanding of his Majesty
I mean I'm reading for the understanding of...
But I'm praying for the...
I am begging for
I am seeking for the understanding of Your Majesty.

But it's just incomprehensible to me
My mind is feeble and my flesh is weak
And sometimes it isn't your will and your way that I seek
So where exactly am I at in my Christianity?

Can we even call it that anymore?
It's not about religion, it's a relationship, a light
But honestly people don't care what you call it they just want to see it done right
So what is it that you're chasing after
If it's that feeling inside you get similar to that after laughter
You're in the wrong.
I'm sorry but people are emotional, and feelings are fleeting.
However, Our God, is faithful in completing
The promises he made to us from the very beginning
"This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine"
Yeah I'm gonna let that light shine
SO bright, baby it'll light up the night
And maybe you don't even understand it yet
But you've just got to try
It'll change your entire life
But take His word for it, not mine.

Because I am human, and I stumble
I've just got to take a step back and be humble
Enough to realize and recognize that I need to be looking at the world through Your eyes.

"Praise the Lord, I saw the light"
And He told us: you are the light of the world
So why not put it on a lamp stand so all can see
I thought, well there's no way they can be as lost as me
It'd be like the blind leading the blind, we'll be walking into trees
PLEASE. Understand, we are simply man
We don't have all the answers, we're just following commands
The thing is, it really is about a relationship
It's about seeking his face everyday and not letting anything get in the way
Of what God has to say.
Lord means Boss, and Boss means devotion.
We're called to abandon ourselves and not be lead by emotion
Because despite what we feel in the morning, we're still His
Despite how we feel, when we're alone, late at night
And the darkness tries to creep inside
He is still the giver of sight, that unfading light, and the reason for, the leader of, my life.
