I am witness to the light
And called to shine
In spite of the shadows inside.

I am called light
But the shadow I call mine
Makes my light hide

Where my flesh is whole
My soul is shadowed
Where you wound me it shows

Thus your life I stole
Burns out my marrow
And still the light grows

I am witness to the light
And still the light grows
