They can say anything they want to say
Try to bring me down
But I will not allow
Anyone to succeed
Hanging clouds over
And they can try hard to make me feel
That I don t matter at all
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams
CHORUS:
Cause there s a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can t take that away from me
From me
They can do anything they want to do
If you let them in
But they won t ever win
If you cling to your pride
And just push them aside
See
I have learned there s an inner peace I own
Something in my soul
That they cannot possess
So I won t be afraid
And darkness will fade
Cause there s a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they can t take that away from me
No
They can t take this
Precious love
I ll always have inside me
Certainly the Lord will guide me
Where I need to go
They can say anything they want to say
Try to break me down
But I won t face the ground
I will rise steadily
Sailing out of their reach
Oh Lord
They do try hard to make me feel
That I don t matter at all
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams
CHORUS
