Whatever We Do Is Light
Lyrics
Scrolling through the social feed
Folks bein' ignant
Gotta be careful, I don't
Know if they'll respond to me, or to my pigment
In a meeting at the J-O
Somebody starts gettin' racial
Errybody lookin' at me, so I
Give correction it's firm, but full of grace, yo
During my commute home
Loud people on the train goin' crazy...
I wanna go off but I
Hold my tongue cause it's not how mom raised me
These trials they be testin' me, but I
Won't let 'em keep me from my destiny
I just stop, breathe and resist offense
They're not the enemies I wrestle against
So when the darkness attacks
Guess what, we know why
It's the Father of lights that we glorify
So when they go low, that's when we go high
So they recognize
We won't give up the fight
But whatever we do is light
We walk by faith not sight
So whatever we do, whatever we do
We won't give up the fight
But whatever we do is light
We walk by faith not sight
So whatever we do, whatever we do is
(Light) - In the beginning He said let it be and then it was
(Light) - Too many of us don't know what it is or what it does
Provides clarity at the start of a new day
Puts fear to rest, chases evil away
(Light) if you concentrate it, it works like a blade
Cuts to the quick, and leaves your heart displayed
Through fiber optics, light can transmit
And help you understand, so your lesson's legit
So you can deal with adversity you come upon
This light is more than just a spectral phenomenon
This light's a person, born of a virgin
Subject of every sermon, 'cause all the time he's workin'
Carries your burden, when you're tired and deserted
And if sin is a cancer he's a surgeon, for certain
Separate you from your guilt like a curtain and can
Chase away the devil when the serpent is lurkin'
So when the darkness attacks
Guess what, we know why
It's the Father of lights that we glorify
So when they go low, that's when we go high
So they recognize
We won't give up the fight
But whatever we do is light
We walk by faith not sight
So whatever we do, whatever we do
We won't give up the fight
But whatever we do is light
We walk by faith not sight
So whatever we do, whatever we do is
(Light) the power to chase out the darkness
(Light) glory that cannot be tarnished
(Light) It's God who give it, so we live in it
(Light) It's God who give it, so we live in it
(Light) the mark of grace on the chosen
(Light) the presence i wanna stay clothed in
(Light) it's God who give it, so we live in it
(Light) it's God who give it, so we live in it
(Light) the end of the tunnel in this race
And one day i will see his face
It's god who give it, so we live in it
It's god who give it
So when the darkness attacks
Guess what, we know why
It's the Father of lights that we glorify
So when they go low, that's when we go high
So they recognize
We won't give up the fight
But whatever we do is light
We walk by faith not sight
So whatever we do, whatever we do
We won't give up the fight
But whatever we do is light
We walk by faith not sight
So whatever we do, whatever we do is
