See the streetlight on the corner
And watch the headlight as it's coming down the road
Darkness doesn't stand a chance

See the candle burn in the window
And feel the flame’s heat as it's drowning out the cold
Darkness doesn't stand a chance

Even when you're close to midnight
Even when the walls are closing in
There'll always be a star that's shining
And the night will never win
Where the light is

Maybe your spark is just beginning
And maybe it burns from a lifetime long ago
Darkness doesn't stand a chance

Even when you're close to midnight
Even when the walls are closing in
There'll always be a star that's shining
And the night will never win
Where the light is

Where the light is (where the light is)
Darkness can't be found
Where the Lord is (where the Lord is)
Darkness must be bound

So look in my eyes in the morning
And see the hope there and the soul that still remains
Darkness never stood a chance
Darkness never stood a chance
