Songtexte I'll Keep My Light In the Window - Shirley Caesar

Someone who's friendless and cannot find their way
I'll keep my light in my window
But for God's mercy, I'll be in their place
I'm gonna keep my light in my window

I want to be there to help restore their faith
I'm gonna keep my light in my window, yes I am, yeah
I want to be there to help him run the race
I'm gonna keep my light in my window

So I can ease the pain that life can bring
Find the peace the spirit brings
I have been chosen for our work to do
I'm gonna build a better world for me and you

Some call me foolish to lend a helping hand
I'm gonna keep my light in my window
I want to be there to help my fellow man
I'm gonna keep my light in my window

Let peace and mercy spread throughout the land
I'm gonna keep my light in my window
I want to be there to help my fellow man
I'm gonna keep my light in my window

So I can ease your pain that life can bring
Find the peace the spirit brings
I have been chosen for our work to do
I'm gonna build a better world for me and you, yes, I am

So I can ease the pain that life can bring
Find the peace the spirit brings
I have been chosen for our work to do
I'm gonna build a better world for me and you

Some call me foolish to lend a helping hand
I'm gonna keep my light in my window
I want to be there to help my fellow man
I'm gonna keep my light in my window

Let peace and mercy spread throughout the land
I'm gonna keep my light in my window
I want to be right there to help my fellow man
I'm gonna keep my light in my window

So I can ease the pain that life can bring
Find the peace the spirit brings
I have been chosen for our work to do
I'm gonna build a better world for me and you

Ease the pain that life can bring
Find the peace the spirit brings
Chosen for our work to do
Build a world for me and you
