They can say anything they want to say
Try to bring me down
But I will not allow
Anyone to succeed
Hanging clouds over me
And they can try hard to make me feel
That I don`t matter at all
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams

CHORUS:
`Cause there`s a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they Can`t Take That Away from me
From me

They can do anything they want to you
If you let them in
But they won`t ever win
If you cling to your pride
And just push them aside
See
I have learned there`s an inner peace I own
Something in my soul
That they cannot possess
So I won`t be afraid
And darkness will fade

`Cause there's a light in me
That shines brightly
They can try
But they Can`t Take That Away from me

No
They can`t take this
Precious love
I`ll always have inside me
Certainly the Lord will guide me
Where I need to go

They can say anything they want to say
Try to break me down
But I won`t face the ground
I will rise steadily
Sailing out of their reach

Oh Lord
They do try hard to make me feel
That I don`t matter at all
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe
Or lose faith in my dreams

`Cause there`s a light in me that
shines brightly
They can try
But they Can`t Take That Away from me
From me

I LOVE this song very much. It's hard to express how much this song means to me. I'm not a person that walks through the spreading happiness and feeling fine everytime. Actually there are a lot of times when I'm down and out and don`t know how to go on. Very seldom there's someone around who cares for me and that are times when I`m longing to hear this song. It gives me the strength and courage I need to face my life. Thank you Mariah. Thank You Mariah. You are the best.
