You Wanted Me

I could not find my way, I faltered in perpetual night
my firmament was dark, no star provided heavenly light
and then I heard your love expressed
and instantly my life was heaven blessed
you led me from my darkness because you said you wanted me

I wandered without aim, I did not seek an end or a goal
my world was indistinct, a setting for a stumbling soul
but when you made me realise
you held the light of love within your eyes
you led me from my darkness because you said you wanted me

the light your loving brings to me is sweet illumination
your light of loving clarity shines on me
...
the light your loving brings to me is sweet illumination
your light of loving clarity shines on me

you shone your light of love, and by your loving light I was kissed
now everything is bright, my darkness is dispelled and dismissed
I do not have a thing to fear now everything is sharp and crystal-clear
you led me from my darkness because you said you wanted me
you led me from my darkness because you said you wanted me

you led me from my darkness
