The morning arrives and I'm waking alone
And I'm looking around at the life I have known
All the darkness and ice that once kept us apart
And the empty despair that corroded my heart
My freedom was bought by Your death on the cross
But that liberty came at a terrible cost
Yet that was Your purpose, to call me back home
And I realise now You have left me my own
To turn them from darkness to light
That's why you have your life
So don't think you're losing the fight
Leave your old life and live for the light
And all things are lawful, I know this is true
But the life that I live is to glorify You
So they won't have power to take hold of me
And under your grace, Lord, I know I'm set free
I'll fight off the weakness that poisons my flesh
I'll wrest back control from this body of death
And the light that is in me will shine like the sun
As I serve the captain of my salvation
To turn them from darkness to light
That's why you have your life
So don't think you're losing the fight
Leave your old life and live for the light
And as you turn the page
Watch your whole life change
Feel the love that changed your life
Know now to truly live is Christ
Let your broken spirit glow so bright
With His light
To turn them from darkness to light
To love them with all of your might
To lean on that hope through the night
Leave your old life and live for the light
