Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Shine your light on me
So I can be set free
No more captivity shine on me
Shine you light on me
So I can be set free
No more captivity just shine your light on me
More radiant more obedient shine your light see the key is
Let no evil between us alter my life so seamless (Ahh)
More hungry more meekness put your light on me in my weakness
Glorify you no secret open up my heart and receive it (Ahh)
Do believe in miracles are you afraid of letting go
Glorify him while you standing at the rim take a step you never know
Life so beautiful think outside the box then in a cubicle
Live every day like it's your last numeral
Then you might see what life has in store for you
Shine your light on me
So I can be set free
No more captivity shine on me
Shine your light on me
So I can be set free No more cavity just shine your light on me
More humble smile at humility
Cross that bridge of hostility
Free your mind like a hands free ay no weapon formed against me ay
I can hear you calling me in the late night hour
When the devil start poking I bathe in your power
Drop to my knees give thanks for the hour
And that's healing from the stress
And I'm grateful for my breath that you put in my lungs
Gave gift to my tongue my story my run
Never forget where I come from
How I got here you can see the outcome
If it happened for me it can happen for you
With a little bit of faith it will all come true let's get it
Shine your light on me
So I can be set free
No more captivity shine on me
Shine your light on me
So I can be set free
No more captivity
Just shine your light on me
Shine on me yea
Ain't nothing like heavenly love




Shine on me yea
Ain't nothing like heavenly love
