I've been living inside this house
The walls I built myself
With all these different thoughts running through my mind
You've been knocking at the door again
It's been a while since I've opened it
And all You really want is this heart of mine

So why am I hesitating?
What am I trying to hide?
And why do I keep on waiting
When I know what's on the other side?

It's time to let the light in, let the light in
Why don't we break the silence, break the silence?
'Cause I've been one foot out, one foot in
I think it's time, I think it's time to let the light in

Open my heart to feel
The only love I know that's real
I want Your voice of truth to be the loudest sound
Thought I was safe here in the dark
But now I know I can trust Your heart
Lord, all I really want is Your presence now

It's time to let the light in, let the light in
Why don't we break the silence, break the silence?
'Cause I've been one foot out, one foot in
I think it's time, I think it's time to let the light in

Let the light in
Shine on the darkest parts
Illuminate my heart
Freedom is where You are
Let the light in
You've been knocking at the door again
It's been a while since I've opened it
And all You really want is this heart of mine (heart of mine)

It's time to let the light in, let the light in (gotta let the light in)
Break the silence, break the silence
'Cause I've been one foot out, one foot in (I'll never be the same, oh, yeah)
I think it's time, I think it's time to (oh, Lord, open my heart and) let the light in

Shine on the darkest parts
Illuminate my heart
Freedom is where You are (open my heart and)
Let the light in
Shine on the darkest parts
Illuminate my heart
Freedom is where You are (open my heart and)
Let the light in
