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.


'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.


'Cause there's a light in me.
That shines brightly.
They can try.
But they can't take that away from me.
From me.
