Your Inner Light

Liner Notes
#spiritual
This song feels a bit long and monotonous, but I don't know how to fix that. I tried putting in a key change.
Any suggestions, or if anyone wants to try modding it, I'm open.
Lyrics
I was wandering through the twilight of the evening
When I stumbled on the footpath of a church
An old man came and took me through the doorway
And though he saw I wasn’t injured
He could see that I was hurt
I said thanks, but you don’t know the man you’re seeing
'Cause there's one thing that you've got to understand
You should turn away and tell me to be leaving
Although I thirst, I am cursed
For I am not a praying man
And he said, Dash the darkness of illusion
Find your inner light
Shine it on your footsteps falling
On your path tonight
There’s no use in your lamenting all the things you lack
Don’t curse the burden on your shoulders
Bless the strength of your back
Remember, our Redeemer also was a man
And he had to walk alone that day
With that burden in his hands
And He stumbled on the footsteps
And He stumbled as He died
And through His trials, his Father smiled
And whispered as He cried
Dash the darkness of illusion
Free Your Inner Light
Shine it on their footsteps
On all the paths tonight
Let there be no more lamenting
Let them never lack
Place their burdens upon Your shoulders
I will take them back
His sermon made the darkness of the street part
As he spun these words of Hope upon my path
I went back home and kissed my childhood sweetheart
Told her I was sorry, and if she would take me back
Then we went inside and saw our babies sleeping
And I knew just why I had to try once more
In that room I found what I was seeking
It was the simple light of love
And it filled me to the core
Dash the darkness of illusion
Find your Inner Light
Shine it on your footsteps falling
On your path tonight
There’s no use in your lamenting all the things you lack
Place your burden on His shoulder
You are welcome back

“Don’t curse the burden on your shoulders
Bless the strength of your back” was a really nice line I enjoyed very much. Great write. Nice melody and guitar playing here! Of course a great message here, as well.
