Salt Lamp

(album: By God - 2001)

I don't want to lose my taste
My light has gone

There's a great big city
Sitting on the hill
That will not be hidden
And the itty bitty light
Sitting in the dark
Is on it's lamp stand
I don't ever want to lose your call
Or for my city to ever fall
I want my light to always know
That it's not sitting underneath the bowl
I know the greatest man
I know my biggest fan
I know the best friend
I know the Great I Am
I know Him
Gonna let my light shine [2x]
Please don't let me be
Open my eyes to see

The salt that has lost its flavor
Is salty no more
And the paint that has no color
Is thrown out the door

I don't ever want to lose your call
Or for my city to ever fall
I want my light to always know
That it's not sitting underneath the bowl
I know the greatest man
I know my biggest fan
I know the best friend
I know the Great I Am
I know Him
Gonna let my light shine [2x]

There's a great big city
Sitting on the hill
That will not be hidden
And the itty bitty light
Sitting in the dark
Is on it's lamp stand

I don't ever want to lose your call
Or for my city to ever fall
I want my light to always know
That it's not sitting underneath the bowl

I know the greatest man
I know my biggest fan
I know the best friend
I know the Great I Am
I know Him
Gonna let my light shine [2x]
