Keep out the light or hold the light inside,
Folded and falling, tethered by a string;
Eyes open, in the darkness, where I hide.
Weather dark, contemplating suicide,
Pull me up and rid my soul of these things;
Keep out the light or hold the light inside.
In my place, my home is where I preside,
To enjoy all of that which the Lord brings;
Eyes open, in the darkness, where I hide.
In the cold the sinful devil replied,
With the song of temptation that he sings;
Keep out the light or the hold the light inside.
Afraid to move, whether in or outside,
Lock the door, ignore the world when it rings;
Eyes open, in the darkness, where I hide.
The light defeats the dark by a landslide.
Two Angels that finally get their wings.
Keep out the light or hold the light inside,
Eyes open, in the darkness, where I hide.
