08. Leave a Light On

Empty & Beautiful
by Matt Maher



 

 

Where did you go?
Jesus, where did You go?
You flew into the clouds We worship and we doubt
Now I’m leaping for joy and sinking

Where are You now?
Tell me where are you now?
Hidden in the skies
Behind the poor man’s eyes

In our waiting and our serving
Until You take us home
Until You return

I’ll leave a light on for You, my Lord
I’ll leave a light on for You, my Lord
Your Spirit inside, burning bright I’ll leave a light on

Here You are found Jesus, here You are found
In the breaking of the bread
The waking of the dead In our dying and our rising
Until You take us home
Until You return

Give me oil in my lamp
Keep it burning till the break of day
Give me oil in my lamp
Keep it burning till the break of day
Give me oil in my lamp
Give me oil in my lamp
Keep me burning till the break of day

Shine on through the darkness
Shine on, shine on
