Shadows in My Heart

Flood my heart with your light, Oh Lord,

Wash away all that’s dark.
Leave no shadow to trouble me,
Ignite in me Your spark.
 
For Lord I have dark thoughts sometimes,
That leave me feeling shame.
They’re not thoughts that would glorify
One living in Your name.
 
They linger from a time long past,
When I was a lost soul,
But there’s no reason for them now
That You have made me whole.
 
So fill my heart up with such light
That shadows have no place
And let my thoughts be only those
That are born in Your grace.
 
2 Corinthians 4:6
For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.
