Lecrae - Let There Be Light lyrics

[Hook: Andy Mineo] We livin' in a dark world, how they gonna know If we don't put His glory on display and let it show So let there be light, let there be light Let there be light, let there be light [Verse 1: Andy Mineo] I was in the dark, like the basement My heart used to love sin, then He changed it Lo-look what grace did, couldn't live without her Got no strength on my own, yeah I'm living solar powered Getting bright lit, this ain't no light switch I can't turn it on and off, Lord come ignite this I wanna be that flame in the dark where no light is While I'm in this frame, I show them who the Christ is When they see my deed's deed, I'm just being me I hope that they seeing You, every time they seeing me Treating others the same way that I would want them treating me Yeah we say it all the time, but that ain't done so easily So Jesus give me Your heart, mine is deceitful Then give me Your eyes, I wanna see people Same way that You see them, cause you all that they need It's like I'm Peter, though I'm falling You still calling me to feed them [Hook] [Verse 2: Andy Mineo] I took a trip back to the 'Cuse, I saw my old friend Ran into my boy Ox, man it had me broken cause He was been doing things that I know I had taught him Back when I was in sin, now I know the world's watching You're given hands, feet, tongue, eyes and the like To show the world what we really prize is the Christ So take that Romans 12:1 apply it to your life Let your light shine, your body's a living sacrifice This is worship, with you on them verses The light in you could be darkness So are you certain, I pray Father search in Show me what competes for your throne On the seat of my heart, so I leave that joint alone All I know that is I'm prone, to wander and to roam So put fire in these bones, by Your Spirit make me strong If we like that we on, it's time to make Him known We illuminate the dark 'till the day He comes home [Hook] [Verse 3: Lecrae] I was made to light it up, city on a hilltop And I know the only way so hit me when you feel lost Yeah, so put your shades on, you know lower your frames Cause when His glory shine, you gon' lower your frame Higher than smoking Mary Jane on an aeroplane His name's great, that's why 'crae is living for Jesus mayne Much love to the folks in the church Lighting up the world while they're putting in work Even when it hurt, man we can't stop now Something caved in when the cave caved out But we can't lose what we never did earn Walk with the Son so my life's gon' burn Never giving up and I'm never gon' turn Glowing in the dark until the Lord return Yeah, Genesis 1:3 on mind homie So let there be light, I'm trying to shine homie [Hook]
