If light and darkness
Could fill the same space
At the same time
Then sin and righteousness
Could co-exist
Then I could love
And hate
And it would be cool
Or I could curse
And bless
With no fuss
Life could be easier
Being in every place
I could be the killer at night
And the healer when it dawns
And I could be the revealer
And concealer
Of truths or lies
But light has its place
And darkness owns its space
And in darkness,
I could sin
And hate
And curse
And kill
And lie
But in light,
I love, I bless, I heal, I speak truth
I am the righteousness of God
In the space of darkness
I owned not myself
I was bound
And did as compelled
But in the place of light
I live freely
Bonded only by love
So,
I choose freely
To stay with light
To live as light
To die as light
I choose the place of light
I choose this place
