Take Me Out of the Dark - Gary V.

It was the 90s when my brother and I watched the concert of Gary V. The Divine Word Academy of Dagupan (DWAD) Gym was the biggest stage that time. We came in early so we were able to see him rehearse. We were almost at the stage with Gary while he was preparing for the big night. It was almost very dark then the crowd slowly gathered inside.

I remember this scene just yesterday. I went back to that school which is where my niece and nephew are currently enrolled. I always associate that place with this singer/actor because it was the very first time I watched a concert, practically by myself and with my younger brother of course. It was really great!

For the information of all, I frequent that place nowadays because I joined a choir and we sing at the church near that school every first and third Sunday of the month.

Well, let us listen to one of Gary V's most heart-warming prayer/song. Here goes the lyrics:

Just what is it in me?
Sometimes I just don't know
What keeps me in Your love,
Why you never let me go

And though you're in me now,
I fall and hurt you still
My Lord, please show me how
To know just how you feel

You have forgiven me
Too many times it seems
I feel I'm not what you might call
A worthy Christian after all

And though I love You so
Temptation finds its way to me

Teach me to trust in You
With all my heart
To lean not on my own understanding
I just forget
You won't give me what I can't bear

Take me out of the dark, my Lord
I don't wanna be there

You've never left my side
You gave Your hand to me to hold
Oh Jesus, I'm no longer in the cold

And yet, I leave You there
When I feel satisfied
I'd like to thank You every day
Not only when I feel that way

I've never known a Man
Who'd give His life for sinners like me
And yet, because He loves us so
He's promised us eternity
And we can have that promise
And be His if we have faith
And just believe

Teach us to trust in you
With all my heart
To lean not on my own understanding
We just forget
You won't give us what we can't bear

Take us out of the dark, My Lord
'Cause we don't want to be alone
Take me out of the dark, My Lord
We don't wanna be there, My Lord

Trust in You with all my heart
Lean not on my own understanding
I just forget
You won't give me what I can't bear

Take me out of the dark, My Lord
Cause we don't want to be alone
Take me out of the dark, My Lord
I don't want to be there
