Lecrae

While there’s no sure route to carving out a significant presence in the music industry, there’s always something to be said for remaining true to one’s self. Since arriving on the scene with his 2004 debut Real Talk, Lecrae has been occupying two different yet not entirely opposing worlds: the sacred and the profane. Which is to say that his art, not unlike his life, has been as much about inspiring the streets, and about justice, freedom, and interrogating real-world issues, as it is about his personal journey of faith. His music has long served as a call to arms for those willing to sacrifice for a cause beyond themselves. Still, he won’t be boxed in to any genre or made to serve as a poster-child for any particular agenda. Following a host of celebrated … more »

We livin' in a dark world
How they gonna know
If we don't put His glory on
Display and let it show
So let there be light, let there be light
Let there be light, let there be light

I was in the dark, like the basement
My heart used to love sin, then He changed it
Loo-loo-look what grace did
Couldn't live without her
Got no strength on my own
Yo I'm living solar powered
Getting bright lit
This ain't no light switch
I can't turn it on and off
Lord come ignite this
I wanna be that flame in the
Dark where no light is
While I'm in this frame
I show them who the Christ is
When they see my deed's deed
I'm just being me
I hope that they seeing You
Every time they seeing me
Treating others the same way that I
Would want them treating me
Yeah we say it all the time
But that ain't done so easily
So Jesus give me Your heart
Mine is deceitful
Then give me Your eyes, I wanna see people
Same way that You see them
Cause you all that they need
It's like I'm Peter, though I'm falling
You still calling me to feed them

We livin' in a dark world
How they gonna know
If we don't put His glory on
Display and let it show
So let there be light, let there be light
Let there be light, let there be light

I took a trip back to the 'Cuse
I saw my old friend
Ran into my boy Ox, man it had me broken
'Cause he was doing things that I
Know I had taught him
Back when I was in sin
Now I know the world's watching
You're given hands, feet, tongue
Eyes and the like to show the world what we
Really prize is the Christ
So take that Romans 12: 1
Apply it to your life let your light shine
Your body's a living sacrifice
This is worship, with you on them verses
The light in you could be darkness
So are you certain, I pray Father search in
Show me what competes for your throne
On the seat of my heart
So I leave that joint alone
All I know that is I'm prone
To wander and to roam
So put fire in these bones
By Your Spirit make me strong
If we light then we on
It's time to make Him known
We illuminate the dark 'till the
Day He call us home

We livin' in a dark world
How they gonna know
If we don't put His glory on
Display and let it show
So let there be light, let there be light
Let there be light, let there be light

I was made to light it up, city on a hilltop
And I know the only way so
Hit me when you feel lost
Yeah, so put your shades on
You know lower your frames
Cause when His glory shine
You gon' lower your frame
Higher than smoking Mary Jane on an aeroplane
His name's great
That's why 'crae is living for Jesus mayne
Much love to the folks in the church
Lighting up the world while
They're putting in work
Even when it hurt, man we can't stop now
Something caved in when the cave caved out
But we can't lose what we never did earn
Walk with the Son so my life's gon' burn
Never giving up and I'm never gon' turn
Glowing in the dark until the Lord return
Yeah, Genesis 1: 3 on mind homie
So let there be light
I'm trying to shine homie

We livin' in a dark world
How they gonna know
If we don't put His glory on
Display and let it show
So let there be light, let there be light
Let there be light, let there be light
