lay a little light on me - strawbs lyrics
verse 1
watch my hand
see it shakes
trembling as my life blood bleeds
comfortless
superfakes
offering their empty creeds
pre-chorus
that have no faith or substance
that change to suit the doubter
to satisfy his needs
chorus
rid me of my darkness
lay a little light on me
clothe me with your brightness
lay a little light on me
oh save me someone
lay a little light on me
verse 2
growing boys
m-st-rb-t-
drink the wine and take the bread
saintly priests
castigate
holy water for the head
pre-chorus
with shades of john the baptist
who came intent to rescue
but danced with death instead
chorus
rid me of my darkness
lay a little light on me
clothe me with your brightness
lay a little light on me
oh save me someone
lay a little light on me
interlude
bridge
bless the good, curse the bad
some are wise, others mad
phoney propheteers
suitably seeming sad
pre-chorus
preparing for the kingdom
annointing us with wisdom
convinced that we’ll be glad
chorus & outro
rid me of my darkness
lay a little light on me
clothe me with your brightness
lay a little light on me
oh save me someone
lay a little light on me
oh save me someone
lay a little light on me
oh save me someone
lay a little light on me
oh save me someone
lay a little light on me
