Lyrics
Verse 1
Fear is haunting me again
Lies are whispering in my ear
Loss, it's so hard to comprehend
When life doesn't go to plan
Pre-Chorus
I am feeling alone, out of control
It's taking its toll
But I, I wanna be known
Wanna be whole, spirit and soul
Chorus
So I'll sing, la, la, la, la, la
I know Your love will light my way
La, la, la, la, la
Oh, Your love will light my way
Verse 2
Dream, now it's time to dream again
Life, would you help me understand?
Peace, will you take me by the hand?
Hope, always giving me a chance
Pre-Chorus 2
I, I'm gonna be known
Gonna be whole, spirit and soul
Chorus
So I'll sing, la, la, la, la, la
I know Your love will light my way
Sing, la, la, la, la, la
Oh, Your love will light my way
Chorus (Repeat)
So I'll sing, la, la, la, la, la
I know Your love will light my way
Sing, la, la, la, la, la
Oh, Your love will light my way
Bridge
There's freedom in letting it go
Freedom like you've never known
Don't need to fight it alone
I gotta tell you, there's freedom in walking away
Freedom in making a change
Whether you leave or you stay
I gotta tell you how loved you are
Tell you how loved you are
Chorus
La, la, la, la, la
I know Your love will light my way
Singing, la, la, la, la, la
Oh, Your love will light my way
Singing, la, la, la, la, la
I know Your love will light my way
Singing, la, la, la, la, la
Oh, Your love will light my way
Outro
Light my way
Love, love, love will light my way
La, la, la, la, la
Oh, Your love will light my way
Outro (Repeat)
La, la, la, la, la
I know Your love will light my way

Meaning & Inspiration
The song moves from fear, loss, and isolation toward the assurance that divine love can guide a troubled life. Its opening lines do not hide emotional strain: plans fail, control slips away, and the desire to be known in spirit and soul becomes urgent. Against that tension, the recurring image of love as light offers direction rather than an instant explanation for suffering.
As the lyric develops, dreaming, peace, and hope return. The bridge also connects love with freedom: burdens can be released, change can be faced, and struggle does not have to be carried alone. Although some lines speak directly to another person, the chorus anchors the song in trust that God’s love lights the way. That image closely echoes biblical language about light guiding a path, while the assurance of being loved recalls the enduring reach of divine love. The song therefore holds vulnerability and confidence together, presenting love as a steady presence amid uncertainty.
