Barbara Pennington Lyrics - Out of the Darkest Night

Barbara Pennington - Out of the Darkest Night

There's a feelin' inside of me
And I wanna tell the world out there
Yesterday I was lonely and lost
My life was going nowhere, nowhere

But I found determination
And the strength to carry on through
If you believe in yourself,
People will open their arms to you

Out of the darkest night and into the light
A little hope showed me the way
Out of the darkest night and into the light
And that's where I'm gonna stay

You can make it if you try

I am wiling to testify
That true strength comes from within
This is a message for all mankind
Don't hold back or you'll never win

Everybody can be a star
And light up the night sky
Whole thoughts can bring success
It's there if we only try

Out of the darkest night and into the light
A little hope showed me the way
Out of the darkest night and into the light
And that's where I'm gonna stay

Inspiration, sweet sensation
Opens the door to determination
Inspiration, celebration
Let's try to light up the nation

Out of the darkest night and into the light
A little hope showed me the way
Out of the darkest night and into the light
And that's where I'm gonna stay

Don't you know, don't you know?
You can make it if you try

Everybody can make it if you try
We've got to get up now and reach for the sky
Ain't no time to sit around and cry
'Cause I'm here and I'm willin' to testify
That true strength comes from within

I am proud that I learned the truth
I want my friends to understand
None of us knows the answer to life
The scale is just too grand, too bright

But if we take care of our own destiny
And do the very best we can
We need to enrich the way we live
For each and every woman and man

Out of the darkest night and into the light
A little hope showed me the way
Out of the darkest night and into the light
And that's where I'm gonna stay

Be a fighter, hold on tighter
Watch your flower burnin' brighter
Be a fighter, a star writer
It will make your burden lighter

Out of the darkest night and into the light
You can make it, we can make it if we try
Out of the darkest night and into the light
And that's where I'm gonna stay

Oh, yes
You can make it if you try
Get off of your tail, get work on
Ain't no time to cry

Out of the darkest night and into the light
And that's where I'm gonna stay

Oh, yes
You can make it if you try
Get off of your tail, get work on
Ain't no time to cry

Out of the darkest night and into the light
A little hope showed me the way
Out of the darkest night and into the light
And that's where I'm gonna stay
