One of my Favorite Christian Songs

I think this song says something about our faith. How many times do we invite someone we know to come with us and find Christ? How often do we tell people why we Choose God? Where is our compassion and our love for God?

There were times in my life, I was looking for that light to be on. Hoping someone would invite me back into the warm and help take me out of the cold. Someone would show me the way back to God. You never know, the person needing you to show them the way may be closer then you think.

"Leave a Light on for me" by Greg Ferguson

Leave a light on for me
I don't know if you remember
But we've gone by each other
A time or two before

Leave a light on for me
I drive by this church so often
I pull up for just a moment
And I look inside the door

Leave a light on for me
Cause i've been a lot of places
And I've learned a lot of lessons
And the lessons take their toll

Leave a light on
So I can look for what's left
Of my soul

Leave a light on for me
Cause my world keeps getting bigger
But my heart's been getting smaller
And it chills me to the bone

Leave a light on for me
Cause I thought I had the answers
But now i've got these questions
That won't leave me alone

Leave a light on for me
Cause I've always been a fighter
But never knew how much of life
Was out of my countrol

Leave a light on
Cause right now I can't see where to go

I don't know why I keep on
Driving by your door
I'm not excatly sure
Just what i"m looking for
Is there a candle burning
In the hope of my returning
Do you mean to shine a light
Or to just keep out the night
I want to know.
I want to know.

so leave a light on for me
Shine it out into the darkness
so I can always see it
In the corner of my eye

leave a light on for me
So when i drive by tomorrow
I'll believe the door's still open
And I might go back inside

Leave a light on for me
I've kept my distance from religion
But i've always hoped there might be
Someone watchin' over me

Leave a light on
And maybe this time
Leave a light on
And maybe this time
Leave a light on
and maybe this time...i'll believe.
