The world can be a dark and dismal place Life as light of men, part of a fallen race, Standing out in history so unique Love so incredible, no hesitation for peace In the darkness you can stumble, you can fall, Cause you can't see the light, your back's against the wall Desperation in sight, desolation at hand Walk in the promise land When light shines, darkness retreats Withdrawn into the realms running down the streets Over there not here do you understand Eternity your hoping you can plan In the darkness you can stumble you can fall Cause you can't see the light, your back's against the wall Desperation in sight, desolation at hand Walk in the promise land Impacting life with nothing else to fill Shining the light taking over against our will A better person not easily understood Never looking for all that is good Impacting life with nothing else to fill Shining the light taking over against our will A better person not easily understood Never looking for all that is good In the darkness you can stumble you can fall Cause you can't see the light, your back's against the wall Desperation in sight, desolation at hand Walk in the promise land In the darkness you can stumble you can fall Cause you can't see the light your back's against the wall Desperation in sight, desolation at hand Walk in the promise land
