John Sturgill Simpson — A Little Light lyrics

Lyrics

Through all these earthly trials of sorrow, through all these days of mortal
sin,
Through all these eternal nights of no tomorrow,
Gotta stay straighter than an arrow, find a little light within
Gotta walk that road, all the way to heaven
Gotta walk that road, until the dawn
Gotta walk that road all night, all we need is a little light
Every closer you get Lord, brighter is turns on
(I said the closer you get Lord, brighter it turns on)
Don’t need no compass, no map or chart
I don’t need no stars shining above
I don’t need no nothing but a little light in my heart
Glowing inside me like a blanket of love
