"You Are the Light"

I keep a file on our music player of songs that speak to me in a spiritual way. The following song is one of my favorites. "You are the Light" runs through my head and often it's my mantra, helping me to remain mindful and aware that I am a part of God's world, not the other way around. The song is by Maria McKee and seems very Quaker to me, although, as far as I know, she is not a Friend.

"You Are The Light"

You are the light in my dark world
You are the fire that will always burn
You are the light,
You are the light
You are the light in my dark world

Oh how you shine in my time of darkness
Oh how you shine when everything seems hopeless
You know how to help me
When I can't stand on my own
Don't let go now

You are the light in my dark world
You are the fire that will always burn
You are the light,
you are the light
You are the light in my dark world

Oh how you shine in my time of indecision
On how you shine gonna give this girl some vision
You know how to let go
When I can't stand on my own
Don't let go now

You are the light in my dark world
You are the fire that will always burn
You are the light,
you are the light
You are the light in my dark world
