A Little Bit Of Light

Phil Keaggy


I lie here staring at the starry night 
Vincent Van Gogh you really got it right. 
Your brush strokes paint the darkness in your life 
Behind every brush stroke I find 
A little bit of light..... a little light 

The sound and fury kept me up all night, 
Count no counts and feeling all uptight. 
The struggle for the soul is a terrible fight. 
Behind every word I find 
A little bit of light. 

It's a beautiful thing to see through the eyes 
Of pain and heartache laid into the night. 
You run from the darkness in this life, 
But if you turn around you'll find 
A little bit of light - a little bit of light. 

The blackest sea would tell a tale 
Of journeys the chosen few have prevailed. 
The failing dream could reach the highest high 
And love comes tumbling down 
In a little bit of light - a little bit of light. 

Don't forget the sunflower and the lilies fair 
The spotted horses and that old black bear. 
Laughter turns the tears we often cry 
And joy comes crashing in 
In a little bit of light 

It's a beautiful thing to see through the eyes 
Of pain and heartache laid into the night. 
You run from the darkness in this life, 
But if you turn around you'll find 
A little bit of light - a little light. 

It's a beautiful thing to see through the eyes 
Of pain and heartache laid into the night. 
You run from the darkness in this life, 
But if you turn around you'll find 
A little bit of light - a little light.
