Leader: Weigh nothing light on my soul
Are you still in control

Love left me hungry, life gave me pain
This world washed dreams away like the gray rain

Student 3: 66% of the population believes that absolute truth cannot be found

Smudges like newspaper, sooty and raw

Leader: Hoping I find Your purity, more holy than snow
Still feeling gone, all the ways that I’ve shifted
But You’re here and I’m here,

Like an eagle I’ll fly above all pointless things

Student 2: IN Northern VA there are over 2,000 students like me meeting on a weekly basis

Leader: So please be my answer, and please help me cope
So don’t let me leave You, so tied to Your Hope
Always stay in control
Weigh nothing light on my soul
