C Am F C Am My life before You F I was a flame burning down C I was burning out Am But You knew me better F For You there was never a doubt G Not since You gave me life Am Something was different F I knew it the instant C You put the light in me The spark The shot to the heart Am You are the hope that leads me Out of the dark F You let Your love shine down G So that the world can see F You put the light in me Am C The light, You put the light in me G F The light, You put the light in me Am C The light, You put the light in me G C The light, You put the light in me Am You are the Maker F You tell the sun when to rise C I'm just a house on a hill Am But You make me brighter F Than all the stars in the sky G Keep me from growing dim Am ?Cause in Your perfection F I'm just a reflection C G So pull me closer to You Am I'll catch like a fire F And I'll hold You higher C ?Cause You put the light in me F Am C I'll raise it high, I'll let it show G From the roof tops down to the F streets below Am C In day and night, You will be known G And all will see C You put the light in me Am F C Cause you put the light in me
