Darkness has become my world It is all that I'm used to It has made me lonely and cold Longing for a door to run through A door I cannot find One I am unable to open Haunting my mind With nothing to put my hope in I realize my eyes are shut I slowly open them Looking, but for what? Searching with all that I am I see a light Just a crack Something so slight On the darkness I turn my back Toward it I stumble Finally I reach it A prayer I mumble It only seemed fit I open the door And there you stood I am lost no more I've come out of the wood Hope floods my soul Hope in life and in love Burning like a lit coal A gift from above Light shines all around As I step outside My feet on solid ground With you I now stride You show me a path One narrow and true Joyfully I laugh To the darkness I bid adieu

Darkness
Darkness has become my world It is all that I'm used to It has made me lonely and cold Longing for a door to run through A door I cannot find One I am unable to open Haunting my mind With nothing to put my hope in I realize my eyes are shut I slowly open them Looking, but for what? Searching with all that I am I see a light Just a crack Something so slight On the darkness I turn my back Toward it I stumble Finally I reach it A prayer I mumble It only seemed fit I open the door And there you stood I am lost no more I've come out of the wood Hope floods my soul Hope in life and in love Burning like a lit coal A gift from above Light shines all around As I step outside My feet on solid ground With you I now stride You show me a path One narrow and true Joyfully I laugh To the darkness I bid adieu
