Where did you go?

Jesus, where did you go?

You flew into the clouds

We worship and we doubt

Now we're leaping for joy and singing

So where are you now?

Tell me where are you now

Headed in the skies

Behind the poor man's eyes

Awaited and asserted

Until you take us home

Until you return

I'll leave a light on for you, my Lord

I'll leave a light on for you, my Lord

Your Spirit inside, burning bright

I'll leave a light on

Here you are found

Jesus, here you are found

In the breaking of the bread

The waking of the dead

In our dying and our rising

Until you take us home

Until you return

I'll leave a light on for you, my Lord

I'll leave a light on for you, my Lord

Your Spirit inside, burning bright

I'll leave a light on

Give me oil in my lamp

Keep me burning 'till the break of day

Give me oil in my lamp

Keep it burning 'till the break of day

Give me oil in my lamp

Give me oil in my lamp

Keep me burning 'till the break of day

I'll leave a light on for you, my Lord

I'll leave a light on for you, my Lord

Your Spirit inside, burning bright

I'll leave a light on

I'll leave a light on for you, my Lord

I'll leave a light on for you, my Lord

Your Spirit inside, burning bright

I'll leave a light on

I'll leave a light on

(Shine on through the darkness)

I'll leave a light on

(Shine on, shine on)
