Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  keep trying  to find  a life
 On my own,  apart  from  you
I  am the king  of excuses
 I've got one  for every selfish  thing I do
What's  going on  inside  of me?
 I despise  my own  behavior
 This only serves to  confirm,  my suspicions,
 That I'm still  a man in need  of a  Savior
 I wanna be  in the Light  As you  are in the Light
 I wanna shine  like the stars  in the heavens
 Oh Lord  be my Light  and be  my salvation
 'cause all  I want is to  be in the Light
 The disease  of self  runs through  my blood
 It's a cancer  fatal  to my soul
Every  attempt  on my behalf  has failed
 To bring  this sickness under  control
 (Pre-Chorus)
 (Chorus)
Honesty  becomes  me, there's nothing  left to lose
 The secrets  that did run  me, in Your presence  are
 defused
Pride  has no position,  and riches  have no worth
 The pain  that once did cover  me, has been sentenced
 to this earth
 Has been sentenced to this earth

[E] [F#] [Abm]

[E]I keep tr[F#]ying to f[Abm]ind a life
On my o[E]wn, a[F#]part from[Abm] you
[E]I am the [F#]king of e[Abm]xcuses
I've got o[E]ne for every s[F#]elfish thing I [Abm]do

[E]What's going o[F#]n in[Abm]side of me?
I de[E]spise my o[F#]wn be[Abm]havior
This only se[E]rves [F#]to confirm,[Abm] my suspicions,
That I'm st[E]ill a man in [F#]need of a[Abm] Savior

I wanna [E]be in the Li[B]ght As y[F#]ou are in the Li[Abm]ght
I wanna s[E]hine like the st[B]ars in the he[F#]avens
Oh L[E]ord be my Li[B]ght and [F#]be my salv[Abm]ation
'cause a[E]ll I want is [F#]to be in the Li[Abm]ght

The dis[E]ease of se[F#]lf runs th[Abm]rough my blood
It's a [E]cancer fat[F#]al to my [Abm]soul
[E]Every att[F#]empt on my b[Abm]ehalf has failed
To br[E]ing this sickness un[F#]der con[Abm]trol

(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)

[C#m]Honesty be[Ebm]comes me, there's n[Abm]othing left to lose
The se[E]crets that did r[B]un me, in Your p[F#]resence are
defused
[C#m]Pride has no p[Ebm]osition, and [Abm]riches have no worth
The pa[E]in that once did co[B]ver me, has been s[F#]entenced
to this earth
Has been sentenced to this earth
