Shine A Light

From outside the open window

How the faithful was gathered to sing

As the tears swelled up inside me

Still down in a mournful rain.



And all sands of time stood still

As the procession climbed the hill

And off in the distance it's a mother run away

The father turned to say



Somebody shine a light, show me the way

Take me through the night to the break of day.

Won't you shine a light so i can see,

Lift up these chains of darkness and set me free.



Lookin' through the open window

I can see where i went wrong.

I quit searching for the rainbow,

I forgot where i belong.



Then the darkness dips around me

And i have no strength to fight

Though i'll search for those who love me

I'll search for the one above me

Just like i said



Somebody shine a light, show me the way,

Take me through the night to the break of day.

Won't you shine a light so i can see,

Lift up these chains of darkness and set me free.



And all sands of time stood still

As the echo crossed my window sill.

I heard it plain as day, i could hear 'em sing,

I'm trying to find the way,



Somebody shine a light, show me the way

Make it through the night to the break of day.

Won't you shine a light so i can see,

Lift up these chains of darkness and set me free.



Shine a light, show me the way

Take me through the night to the break of day.

Shine a light so i can see

Lift up these chains of darkness and set me free.



Shine a light so i can see

Lift up these chains of darkness and set me free.
