Intro

    

Verse 1

Whenever God shines his light on me
Open up my eyes so I can see
When I look up in the darkest night
I know everything's going to be alright

Verse 2

In deep confusion, in great despair
When I reach out for him he is there
When I am lonely as I can be
I know that God shines his light on me

Chorus

Reach out for him (reach out for him)
He'll be there (he'll be there)
With him your troubles (with him your troubles)
You can share (you can share)
If you live (if you live)
the life you love (the life you love)
You get the blessing from above (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 (feet back) on higher ground
