I keep trying to find a life

On my own, apart from You

I am the king of excuses

I've got one for every selfish thing I do 



What's going on inside of me?

I despise my own behavior

This only serves to confirm my suspicions

That I'm still a man in need of a Savior 



(chorus)

I wanna be in the Light

As You are in the Light

I wanna shine like the stars in the heavens

Oh, Lord be my Light and be my salvation

Cause all I want is to be in the Light

All I want is to be in the Light 



The disease of self runs through my blood

It's a cancer fatal to my soul

Every attempt on my behalf has failed

To bring this sickness under control 



Tell me, what's going on inside of me?

I despise my own behavior

This only serves to confirm my suspicions

That I'm still a man in need of a Savior 



(repeat chorus) 



Honesty becomes me



The secrets that did run me



Pride has no position



The fear that once did cover me



Has been sentenced to this Earth 



Tell me, what's going on inside of me?

I despise my own behavior

This only serves to confirm my suspicions

That I'm still a man in need of a Savior 



(repeat chorus 2x)
