Hold It Up to the Light

It's the choice of a lifetime & I'm almost sure I will not live my life in between anymore If I can't be certain of all that's in store This far it feels so right I will hold it up & hold it up to the light, Hold it up to the light, hold it up to the light The search for my future has brought me here This is more than I'd hoped for, but sometimes I fear That the choice I was made for will someday appear And I'll be too late for that flight So hold it up & hold it up to the light, Hold it up to the light, hold it up to the light I said God, will you bless this decision? I'm scared. Is my life at stake? But I know if you gave me a vision Would I never have reason to use my faith? Now as soon as I'm moving & my choice is good This way comes through right where I prayed that it would If I keep my eyes open and look where I should Somehow all of the signs are in sight If I hold up the light It's too late & to be stopped at the crossroads Each life here & each a possible way But wait & and they all will be lost roads Each path's growing shorter the longer I stay I was dead with deciding & afraid to choose I was mourning the loss of the choices I'd lose But there's no choice at all if I don't make my move And trust that the timing is right I will hold it up hold it up to the light Hold it up to the light, hold it up to the light. --- Hold It up to the Light - Smalltown Poets
