Peter sent an early version of this song and we worked on the lyrics together. - Elton, April 21, 2019



Lyrics

From the depths of my soul I call
To You o Lord for guiding light
So I can see where to put my feet
It is dark and it seems I'm alone
But I am not for You are there
My guiding light when I call out to You

Give me a light Lord
Be my guide
Let your light shine on me oh Lord
Embrace me with your love
Shine your light so I can see the path
Give me strength to obey
I will listen to you
As you send me in your name

When the road ahead is hard and long
I'll travel on in your way
You are the sun that shines on my face
Lead me and give me the strength
To persevere and carry on
A witness of light
In this darkened world

Yes I am scared
But I know you're here
And you'll never leave
Where will I go
I really don't know
But I will obey

Let your light shine on me oh Lord
Embrace me with your love
Shine your light so I can see the path
Give me strength to obey

Let your light shine on me oh Lord
Embrace me with your love
Shine your light so I can see the path
Give me strength to obey

I will listen to you
I will listen to you
I will listen to you
