The evening sun went down
I tried to rise and shine
I didn't feel so good
I prayed for extra time
And I could see a light
Breaking through the night
Shining down on me
I had to make a stand
To find myself again
'Cos I was on my knees
And I was near the end
And then I saw a light
Breaking through the night
Shining down on me
Let it shine on me
Let it shine on me
Let it shine on me
Shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on
I opened up my eyes
To see the morning sun
And now the road is clear
And I am free to run
Yeah, I can see the light
It's burning so bright
Shining on down on me
Shining on down on me
And it was the light
That took me through the night
Shining down on me
Shining down on me
Let it shine on me
Let it shine
