There's a C2 place in the G/B darkness
That D9 I used to G/B cling to
It C2 presses harsh G/B hope against D9 time
In the C2 absence of G/B martyrs
There's a D9 presence of G/B thieves
Who only C2 want to G/B rob you D9 blind
They steal aC2way G/B__D9 any sense of G/B peace
Though I'm a C2 king I'm a G/B king on my D9 knees
And I C2 know they are G/B wrong
When they D9 say that I'm Em strong
As the C darkness D covers G me
{name: Bridge}
So D turn on the light and reC9veal all the G glory
D I am C9 not aGfraid
To D bare all my C9 weakness, G knowing in meekness
Em I have a kingdom to D gain
{name: Chorus}
Where there is G peace and D love in the C9 light D
G I am D not aC9fraid
To let your G light shine D bright in my C9 life D
Oh G I... D__C9__G__D__C9__D
There are ghosts from my past
Who've owned more of my soul
Than I thought I had given away
They linger in closets
And under my bed
And in pictures less proudly displayed
A great fool in my life have I been
Have squandered till pallid and thin
Hung my head in shame
And refused to take blame
For the darkness I know I've let win
{name: Bridge}
{name: Chorus}
Well, I've never been much
For the baring of souls
In the presence of any man
I'd rather keep to myself
All safe and secure
In the arms of the sinner I am
Could it be that my worth should depend
On the crimson-stained grace on a hand?
Like a lamp on a hill
Lord, I pray in your will
To reveal all of you that I can
{name: Bridge}
{name: Chorus}
There's a place in the darkness
That I used to cling to
It presses harsh hope against time...
