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
'Cause I see the trust in their eyes
Though the sky is falling
They need Your love in their lives
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
Separated, I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me I've divorced
What if I stumble?
What if I fall?
What if I lose my step
And I make fools of us all?
Will the love continue
When my walk becomes a crawl?
What if I stumble
And what if I
Saw a man with tat on his big fat belly
It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
It took me a while to catch what it said
'Cause I had to match the rhythm of his belly with my head
"Jesus Saves" is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
He stood on a box in the middle of the city
And claimed he had a dream
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
What will people think
When they hear that I'm a Jesus freak?
What will people do when they find that it's true?
No, I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak
There ain't no disguising the truth
