  • Whenever God shines his light on me
    Opens up my eyes so I can see
    When I look up in the darkest night
    I know everything's going to be alright
    In deep confusion, in great despair
    When I reach out for him he is there
    When I am lonely as I can be
    And I know that God shines his light on me

    Reach out for him, he'll be there
    With him your troubles you can share
    If you live, the life you love
    You get the blessing from above

    He heals the sick and heals the lame
    Says you can do it too in Jesus name
    He'll lift you up and turn you around
    And put your feet back on higher ground

    Reach out for him, he'll be there
    With him your troubles, you can share
    You can use his higher power
    Every day and any hour
    He heals the sick and heals the lame
    He says you can heal them too in Jesus name

    He lifts you up and turns you around
    Puts your feet back on higher ground.

    When he shines his light
    Whenever God shines his light on you
    He is the way, he is the truth he is the light
