Analysis of Light of my life



You are a light.
The beacon in the night.
Shine for me.

They will try to steal this light.
They will not prevail.
Look onto me.
I am the Great I am.

I have many plans.
See me.
Listen to me.
Do not walk away.

People will think you are crazy.
I, your father loves you.
The church will see miracles.
Greater than the last Exodus.

People will not choose me.
They will believe the enemy.
I gave you time to repent.
I do not want you to die.
Seek me.
Live everlasting life.
