I went after dark

 ‘Bout ‘78 I went after dark, by ‘80 I was stumbling 

He called in ‘77, I knew the way to heaven 

I ran, 10 years tumbling 

Came a day ‘bout ‘89, my lamp He’d kept alight 

He showed me who I could be 

Could change from wrong to right

When I knelt in ‘91, was Christ who stood me up 

Went after dark but found The Light 

Now drink from Loving Cup. 

Wonder who and what I’d be had I not knelt  that day 

I’d be stumbling, probably mumbling 

May’ve had hell to pay 

Came a day ‘bout ‘89, my lamp He’d kept alight 

He showed me who I could be 

Could change from wrong to right

When I knelt in  ‘91, was Christ who stood me up 

Went after dark but found The Light 

Now drink from Loving Cup

Came a day ‘bout ‘89, my lamp He’d kept alight 

He showed me who I could be 

Could change from wrong to right

When I knelt in ‘91, was Christ who stood me up 

Went after dark but found The Light 

Now drink from Loving Cup. 

Psalms 18:28

You, LORD, keep my lamp burning;

my God turns my darkness into light.

John 11:9-10

Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? Anyone who walks in the daytime will not stumble, for they see by this world’s light. It is when a person walks at night that they stumble, for they have no light.”
