Lyrics
Heaven's Light
Verse 1: Temptations lurk all around us Out of the darkness beckoning
Trying to take away everything, everything
Out of the depths I cry unto Thee Anguish despair I try to cope
I look to the Lord in His word I find hope, precious hope
Chorus:
He says knock and I will open
He says seek and ye shall find
And cry unto me He lifts me up
Heaven?s light shines on me
Verse 2:
The light of His love fills the darkness
His arm is lengthened all day through
And we are free to take His hand whenever we choose, we just have to choose
Chorus:
He says knock and I will open
He says seek and ye shall find
And cry unto me He lifts me up
Heaven?s light shines on me
Bridge:
He promised me He would never leave
With open arms He?s waiting patiently
Trust His word you can believe, believe
Chorus:
He says knock and I will open
He says seek and ye shall find
And cry unto me He lifts me up
Heaven?s light shines on me
(Repeat)
