Shine Your Light On Me Lyrics - Light For The Lost Boy - Andrew Peterson

I remember once I broke down in the country 

I was sixteen with a broken heart in bloom 

And I walked home through the pines 

Nobody saw me but the moon 

By sunrise I could hear the church bells ringing 

I got there as the saints were marching in 

I sat down on the back row 

And heard the story once again 

And the servants of the secret fire 

Were gathered there 

The embers of the ages 

Like a living prayer 

And all at once I saw the shadows flee 

Shine your light on me, on me 

Be a light unto my path 

And a lamp unto my feet

They flew us down to Oklahoma City 

Yeah, but I could hardly stand there on the stage 

So sick I couldn't speak 

And the fever wouldn't break 

But when I stepped up to the microphone I heard it 

It was the voices of the brothers at my side 

They were singing out my song 

When the song in me had died 

Oh, shine your light on me 

Somebody come and get me when I'm gone 

Two years ago I drove into a darkness 

I straightened every curve on Cane Ridge Road 

And I could hear the flapping wings 

Of every devil I have known 

And the inside of my car was like a casket 

But then it flooded with a blaze of sacred light 

She was calling me back home 

And as I pulled into the drive 

Photos 

I knew the servants of the secret fire 

Were gathered there 

The embers of the ages 

Like a living prayer 

She was standing on the porch where I could see 

Shine your light on me, on me 

Be a light unto my path 

And a lamp unto my feet
