He is my bright light;
Candle burning in the dark;
Keeper of my dreams;
Candle burning in the dark;
Keeper of my dreams;
He is my best friend;
He will never let me down;
Peace I know with Him;
He is my sweet love;
Without Him I would be lost;
I give Him my heart;
He is my defense;
Against evil and despair;
His Word is my shield;
He is my Father;
I am precious in His sight;
His love has no end;
He is my great joy;
A love beyond all telling;
Cleans my sinful heart;
He is my compass;
Puts me on the narrow path;
Praise to You, O God!
