Grace for today and the path that I follow Grace for the strength to carry the load Let all that I say bring healing to sorrow Grace for the strength to move on with You Lord Joy for today for the love I've tasted Joy for the pain You've carried me through All I can say that I'm grateful for healing My life is now changed and I'm walking with You Light shines in the darkest places Light shines Light shines in the darkest places Light shines Light shines Light shines Love for today for my friends and my family Love towards the hate the dreadful and fears May love find a place on the hearts of our children Love joined in praise for a new day is here Light shines in the darkest places Light shines Light shines in the darkest places Light shines Light shines Light shines When I finish the race and life's door I'll be closing When the angels come carry my soul to the gate I'll lift up my hands like a child surrendered To the welcoming arms of my Fathers embrace To the welcoming arms To the welcoming arms Of my Fathers embrace
