The night before you died LordFallen on your kneesPraying to your FatherYour soul in agony

You asked your friends to be thereUntil dawn a vigil keepBut just as you knew they would LordThey all fell asleep

They nailed you to the cross LordYou hung in open shameTwo thieves at your side LordTo the soldiers all a game

Where were those called your disciplesEmpowered to even heal the lameIn weakness and fear they ran Denied they knew your name

As we look back in time LordWe see your friends failYou count on them to be thereBut just your Father’s love prevailed

Are we just like those friends LordWho follow when things go rightBut run for a place to hide LordWhen we should fight the fight

‘Cause you’re the light of the worldYou are the light of the worldYou are the light LordYou are the only oneI’ll follow you LordYou are the light of the world

Whatever the costJust fill up my cupI will always follow you

I will follow youYou are the light LordI’m gonna follow youI’ll follow you LordI’ll only follow you
