Light of the World |
So the candle’s gone out, it’s been soaked by the rain |
And the cold winds of doubt have extinguished the flame |
The lighthouse sits idly in darkness again |
As the ship sails ocean alone |
The sun’s frozen over and all has gone cold |
And the fires of the past have been bought and then sold |
And the light on the porch is abandoned and old |
So the child cannot find his way home |
Arisen |
Forbidden |
We keep our candles hidden |
Born leaders |
That follow, floating with the tide |
«You are the light of the world,» He said |
But we’ve blown out our candles |
And left men for dead |
Singing «we are the light of the world, He said» |
As the darkness descends on us all |
If we were the light of the world today |
Would we hide in the shadows |
And scare them away? |
Are we the light of the world |
Or are we failing to answer the call? |
Men love the darkness |
Much more than the light |
For their deeds can be kept out of mind |
Out of sight |
And the line has eroded |
Between wrong and right |
Like it’s all relative after all |
To stand like a wall and resist the temptation |
To sell ourselves out |
For hollow acclimation |
And cheapen the message |
A weakened foundation |
Revealing the cracks in the wall |
No power |
No glory |
No one to tell their story |
No wonder |
It’s all unraveling |
«You are the light of the world,» He said |
But we’ve blown out our candles |
And left men for dead |
Singing «we are the light of the world, He said» |
As the darkness descends on us all |
If we were the light of the world today |
Would we hide in the shadows and just look away? |
Are we the light of the world |
Or are we failing to answer the call? |
To lift up the fallen |
To stand for the downtrodden |
The poor and the hurting |
Are our ministry |
«You are the light of the world,» He said |
But we’ve blown out our candles |
And left men for dead |
Singing «we are the light of the world, He said» |
As the darkness descends on us all |
If we were the light of the world today |
Would we hide in the shadows and darken the way? |
Are we the light of the world |
Or are we failing to answer the call? |
