Shadows Away
Music and Lyrics by Peter Link
All my life I've lived like a child
Who's safe in the arms of his mother
Now the feeling has gone away
Now I'm coming of age
Now I'm facing the great unknown
Now I'm taking the stage
May mother's light be with me tonight
And chase all the shadows away lord
Shine a little light on me
Shadows away
Shine a little light on me
Shadows away
Here I am a child in a man
And don't know the one from the other
Sometimes feeling a boy again
Sometimes acting my age
Sometimes silly old me again
Sometimes playing the sage
Wisdom's child he comes and he goes
And one never knows where to find him
So shine a little light on me
Shadows away
Shine a little light on me
Shadows away
And let me be
Let me be
Closer to Thee
And in the final hour
Let me be me
Time will tell the shadows will fall
The mysteries all will be over
So shine a little light on me
Shadows away
Shine a little light on me
Shadows away
