Something Bright, Something Shining
I've been waiting for a light and a morning
I've been looking for a wonder and a sign
The night is lit by a single candle burning
But the dark returns when the candle's out of light
Oh Simeon, have you ever lost the promise?
After all these years, do you still believe in Christ?
If ever then you hold that little baby
Would you ask him, could he send me something bright?
Something bright, something shining
Something right, here beside me
Son of David, lift my eyes
I need you, God, to find me
Something bright, something shining
The star that led the wise men to the manger
Has been hiding for a while in the dark
If herald angels come and sing the sky bright
What good is it if we never hear the hark?
If the just shall live by faith and never by sight
If the consolation comes after the dawn
Would you give me light that guides me from the inside
Would you give me something to seek me when I'm lost
Something bright, something shining
Something right, here beside me
Son of David, lift my eyes
I need you, God, to find me
Something bright, something shining
Something bright, something shining
I don't know how to find you in the waiting
My prayers are so much softer than my cries
Maybe one day you can come and hold me
Maybe one day you can make me bright
Make me bright, Make me shining
Make me right, here inside me
Son of David, lift my eyes
I need you, God, to finally
Make me bright, make me shining
Make me bright, make me shining
Make me bright
I've been looking for a wonder and a sign
The night is lit by a single candle burning
But the dark returns when the candle's out of light
Oh Simeon, have you ever lost the promise?
After all these years, do you still believe in Christ?
If ever then you hold that little baby
Would you ask him, could he send me something bright?
Something bright, something shining
Something right, here beside me
Son of David, lift my eyes
I need you, God, to find me
Something bright, something shining
The star that led the wise men to the manger
Has been hiding for a while in the dark
If herald angels come and sing the sky bright
What good is it if we never hear the hark?
If the just shall live by faith and never by sight
If the consolation comes after the dawn
Would you give me light that guides me from the inside
Would you give me something to seek me when I'm lost
Something bright, something shining
Something right, here beside me
Son of David, lift my eyes
I need you, God, to find me
Something bright, something shining
Something bright, something shining
I don't know how to find you in the waiting
My prayers are so much softer than my cries
Maybe one day you can come and hold me
Maybe one day you can make me bright
Make me bright, Make me shining
Make me right, here inside me
Son of David, lift my eyes
I need you, God, to finally
Make me bright, make me shining
Make me bright, make me shining
Make me bright
