In The Light by DC Talk

Finally! It took 127 songs but I finally got a DC Talk song. I have 34 of their songs on my playlist (2nd most behind Petra) and I'm just now finally getting one. This isn't my favorite song of theirs but it's from my favorite album. I liked them when they were strictly a rap group but then this album came out and they showed they could do so much more.

This album is listed under Albums I've Owned page

This artist is under my Seen in Concert page

This artist has more than 20 songs on this blog.

(1, 2, 3) 

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

(There's nothing left to lose)

The secrets that did run me

(In Your presence are defused)

Pride has no position

(And riches have no worth)

The fame that once did cover me

(Has been sentenced to this Earth)

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]

(There's no other place that I want to be)

(No other place that I can see)

(A place to be that's just right)

(Someday I'm gonna be in the Light)

(You are in the Light)

(That's where I need to be)

(That's right where I need to be)
