Speed of Light

I'm just a man with a basic education

I don't mean to question anyone's reputation

But there is only one author of creation

So when I add up Mr. Einstein's calculation

The theory of relativity says E=MC2

I believe the equation's missing one thing

That's the power of prayer

At the speed of light, Jesus is there

At the speed of light, He can be anywhere

In the blink of an eye, in the dark of despair

Across space and time, hope arrives

At the speed of light

I've lived a life of so many contradictions

And I've fallen short with a heart of good intentions

I can't count the scars from the wounds of my afflictions

Or the times that I've cried out for His intervention

But there really is no mystery

If we take Him at His word

And His Spirit reassures us all

Our prayers are being heard

At the speed of light, Jesus is there

At the speed of light, He can be anywhere

In the blink of an eye, in the dark of despair

Across space and time, hope arrives

At the speed of light

At the speed of light, Jesus is there

At the speed of light, He can be anywhere

In the blink of an eye, in the dark of despair

Across space and time, hope arrives

At the speed of light
