The Light
This ballad by Scott Evan Davis is a declaration of devotion and encouragement given to a loved one as they go out into a world that can be dark and difficult. Set in a lilting 6/8 meter, the music dances with hope and inspiration, perfect for graduation ceremonies, concerts, or a competition ballad. The instrumentation is scored for a smaller ensemble, featuring flute and acoustic guitar, but there is an optional brass pack available appropriate for competition settings when a larger sound is needed for more emotional impact.
**Sync, streaming performance, and master licenses are ALL included with the purchase of this arrangement.**
Instrumentation: Piano/2 Synth/Acoustic Guitar/Bass/Drums/Percussion/Flute

I can't be there to hold your hand But I'm the wind that stirs the sand I'm the moon that guides the way I am with you every day You have so much more to do Let this song carry you I'll be your light when the stars forget to shine A thread of gold through tangled vine When you're alone in the darkest night Close your eyes, I'll be your light I'll be your light when the waters get too deep A promise that is meant to keep Wherever you go Whatever you fight I'll be your light There is magic in your name A quiet storm, a hidden flame Underneath the mask you wear Is a power waiting there You've been fighting for so long But part of me lives in your song I'll be your light when the stars forget to shine A rhythm carved in your design When you're afraid, too tired to fly Close your eyes, I'll be your light I'll be your light when the world is dark and wide A voice that never leaves your side Wherever you go Whatever you fight I'll be your light You are more than who you've been You're the start, not the end You are made of love and sky You are mine I'll be your light when the sun begins to rise Fire dancing in your eyes When the world forgets what's right Sing this song and be the light Be the light! Wherever you go Whatever you fight Be the light (Scott Evan Davis)
