Don'T Turn On the Light

It's in the dark
That I pour out my heart 
and acknowledge my wrong 
asking God to make me strong
Confessing that I've fallen short of his glory 
he's always willing to hear my story 
he consoles and comforts me
he keeps from danger I can not see
he chastise me without pity
he shows no remorse for his children that are  siddity
instead he wants to kill the pride 
that lies inside 
tame the wild 
and confound the proud 
because humble is the way 
and I'm subdued to the spirit the more I pray 
I'm mindful of how I walk 
I have better control of what I say 
I give him all that I have with tears streaming down 
Its my desire to wear a crown 
when its all over 
nothing compares to being blessed 
not even a four leaf clover
some fear the dark
but I'm pleading for a clean heart 
so consider my press as  I fight
and don't turn on the light
