Artist Statement

The music video is set at the home of a Christian house party. It depicts a story of a little girl who wants to dance with the older children, but her fear and insecurity keeps her paralyzed in one spot. With a little encouragement and reminder of who she is in Christ, she is emboldened to take her position in the midst of the older children and shine her light.

How it fits into contest

Verse 10 says "Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power."
The song is one of empowerment in Christ.

This song was especially inspired by Matthew 5:14-16 (NIV)
14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

ACT LIKE YOU KNOW
(Sung with Caribbean accent)

Why you dey in de back
Over dey in de corner
Wondering about what dem people say
Don't you know who you are
You de son or de daughter
Of the Most High God, the King of Kings

Come out de dark (Aye)
Step into de light (Aye)
Move to the front (Aye)
Where you belong
Come out de dark (Aye)
Step into de light (Aye)
Move to the front (Aye)
Where you belong

Tell me what is your faith - x 4
Who do we serve - Jesus
Lion ah wah - Judah

If God be for me, who can be against

You de head not de tail
You are more than a conqueror
Everything that you do, expect to win
Doh give up if yuh fail
Doh beat up if yuh falter
Pick yuhself off de ground, repent and win
