It's so easy to point fingers and complain
It's so easy to ignore the cries
Of people lost in pain
But the battered and the helpless
Livin' on the street
Ain't no different from you and me
Be the light that's shining
In the darkest days
You've gotta shine out mercy,
You've gotta shine out grace
We've gotta live the love of Jesus
And let 'em see His face
Be the light that's shining
In the darkest days
It's so easy just to turn and walk away
It's so easy to forget that Jesus
Loves us all the same
Cuz the battered and the helpless
Livin' on the street
Ain't no different from you and me
Be the light that's shining
In the darkest days
You've gotta shine out mercy,
You've gotta shine out grace
We've gotta live the love of Jesus
And let 'em see His face
Be the light that's shining
In the darkest days
Gotta be the light in the darkest days
Gotta be the light shining in the darkness
Gotta give His love away
Gotta be the light in the darkest days
Gotta be the light shining in the darkness
Gotta give His love away
Gotta be the light in the darkest days
Gotta be the light shining in the darkness
Gotta give His love away
Be the light that's shining
In the darkest days
You've gotta shine out mercy,
You've gotta shine out grace
We've gotta live the love of Jesus
And let 'em see His face
Be the light that's shining
In the darkest days
We've gotta live the love of Jesus
And let 'em see His face
Be the light that's shining
In the darkest days
