The Light

You could see the light of the light house from miles away
                  It would shine bright on you as if to say...
                      Look towards my light if you've drifted astray and I will guide
                  you back the rest of the way

                      Standing tall and looking down on all, the lost who will soon
                  be found if they come to call.  Found by the light that shines so
                  bright that can bring you in from out of the night.

                      To serve its purpose, that's why it stands so firm just in case
                  you and I make a wrong turn.
                      Kind of like our Lord who wants us to do the same. To follow
                  his guiding light and live by his name
                       If lost, then his light will guide us along, To bring us safely
                  home to where we belong.

                                                                                        

                                                                                            Look toward the Light-
