Lyrics

VERSE 1:
So long ago in my short time,
There seemed to be no meaning to this life.
I tried so hard to make it back then,
But only lost, time and time again.
So there I stood with all the poor
And unsure if I could take any more.
REFRAIN (Vs.1-2)
But I've seen the star shining on Bethlehem
And the cross high over Jerusalem.
I followed the Word from a heart so pure
And found the faith of a true believer.
VERSE 2:
My early years seemed like a sunset,
Throwing shadows where light had shone the way.
I made so many mistakes back then,
Made them over and over again.
So there I stood, where no one's ever proud,
Being just another face in the crowd.
VERSE 3:
My golden years seem like a sunrise,
Spreading light where darkness ruled the days.
I try to be a light to those in need,
With only love helping me succeed.
So here I stand to care for the poor
And so sure that I can do even more.
LAST REFRAIN
Cause I've seen the star shining on Bethlehem
And the cross high over Jerusalem.
I followed the Word from a heart so pure
And found the faith of a true believer.
