Lost In the Dark
Heard the angels of light calling…
I feel my freed soul is free-falling
How do we know heaven or hell is where we go?
Maybe God has a plan bigger and better than we know
Oh Lord, my benevolent Father
I’m lost in the dark…in the dark…
Oh my, my torn heart beats faster
Need to sing like a lark…like a lark…
Build me up like Noah's gigantic ark
Set us all free from this Earth so dark
It is oh so dark in here
Shed some light of cheer
We are sad and in fear
Waiting for You to hold us dear
Set me free and hear this prayer,
Original from my heart, struck by terror
I still believe in You
I still hope in You too
It’s hard to have faith in times of trouble
When my body is lying on the dirty rubble
Lift me up and defeat the gravity of war
Lift me up and mend my spirit some more
Oh Lord, my benevolent Father
I’m lost in the dark…in the dark…
Oh my, my torn heart beats faster
Need to sing like a lark…like a lark…
Build me up like Noah's gigantic ark
Set us all free from this Earth so dark
It is oh so dark in here
Shed some light of cheer
We are sad and in fear
Waiting for You to hold us dear
You heard my silent screams in the dead of night
I’ve always dreamt of a better life in another light
Keep me in solace's gaze and open up my eyes
Deep inside, these tears drown away the lies
Don’t stand in my way,
Hallow shadows of the day
Understand my purpose in life
It’s to please You and not strife
Oh Lord, my benevolent Father
I’m lost in the dark…in the dark…
Oh my, my torn heart beats faster
Need to sing like a lark…like a lark…
Build me up like Noah's gigantic ark
Set us all free from this Earth so dark
It is oh so dark in here
Shed some light of cheer
We are sad and in fear
Waiting for You to hold us dear
I’ve been lost in the dark for too long
In the light is where I want to truly belong
Too much corruption and negativity
Confused a lot of the times frankly
I’ve been lost in the dark for years on end
These words, I carefully pick out not to offend
Hope I can find that light of inspiration again
In the darkness, we don’t know where we’ve been…
But, I do know you’ll give me a second chance
And everyone else, too, in advance…in advance…
Oh gracious God, I’m in a cruel daze
I’m lost in the dark…in the dark…
I’m lost in the dark…no where near a spark…
Of light that keeps us warm
From the start with no harm
I know for certain you’ll hear our plea
Of happiness and hope to set us free
It is oh so dark in here
Get us out of here, I fear
Should of gave You glory and praise..
Please…please…
Take us out of the scary dark…
At ease…at ease…
Freedom is our beloved park.
