  • V1
    I once saw Your light
    On a revival hill
    A sinner's delight
    As I begged my heart to still
    I walked out into the night
    On a teenage thrill
    I never meant to close my eyes
    'till your light grew dim

    Now lord I ain't asking
    for a brand new start
    I just need your direction
    On finding love in the dark

    V2
    I went out to disciple
    To set the mountains ablaze
    And I had every answer
    I knew just how to be saved
    I thought I wanted to be a preacher
    Maybe I just wanted a stage
    I was called to the floor
    And I didn't have nothing to say

    I used to clinch my candle
    I used to pray for a spark
    Now I'm just content in the struggle
    Of finding love in the dark

    V3
    My youth was a waste
    On the ancient scrolls
    When I decided not to hang
    On the great unkowns
    It ain't that I've been looking toward the grave
    Lord I look to hope
    I'm just praying that the rivers of grace
    Do downward flow

    Your light ain't always shined
    And I never figured out my heart
    Now I'm just feeling through my midnight
    Finding love in the dark Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
