I wrote the lyrics and melody for Show Me The Light, but did not record my own version of the song.
Instead I paid
Douglas Haines to record it for me.

Show Me The Light
Verse 1:
I close my eyes
and silently pray
for a whole new beginning
a brand new day
From life's path I've wandered
lost in the sea of despair
drowning in regrets
gasping for air
Please forgive all my sins
for them I atone
when judgment day comes
I stand all alone
Chorus:
Show me the light
lift me up out of the darkness
that blurs the lines of wrong and right
Show me the light
save my soul, make me whole
give me the strength to win this fight
Verse 2:
I search the skies in vain
looking for a sign
will you be there waiting
at the end of the line?
Are the answers found in texts
passed down through the ages
or maybe in the biblical teachings
of old religious sages
Still I light the candles
in a show of blind devotion
for the love and forgiveness
that we are all hoping
Is my life a test of faith
full of pain and frustration
or just a dead end road
never leading to salvation?
Chorus:
Show me the light
lift me up out of the darkness
that blurs the lines of wrong and right
Show me the light
save my soul, make me whole
give me the strength to win this fight
