Chart History
From the album Saturday Night Fever, Stayin' Alive was a #1 hit for The Bee Gees in 1978.

Songwriter:
Barry Gibb, Maurice Gibb & Robin Gibb


J's Journal:
This is a song based on Psalm 119, which tells us that the Word of God is a lamp, lighting our path.   "Keep the Change" was the first ApologetiX CD since “Ticked” to not include a country song.  To some of folks, that was a welcome change of pace, but we decided to stretch the comfort zones of our listeners with another genre of music -- disco.   If the Newsboys could do it, why not us?  I confess that I remember aday when it seemed like disco and the Bee Gees would never go away.   Then I blinked, and both the style and the group had disappeared.   Tragedy.  Believe it or not, we call our fourth CD (from 1999) "BG" as a tribute to the Brothers Gibb ... and because it's short for "Biblical Graffiti."

Stay in the Light
Parody of "Stayin' Alive" by The Bee Gees
(Psalm 119:105, Eph. 5:8, 1 John 1:7)

Well you can tell by the way I used to walk
I was once a man with no time for God
Knew about the risen Lord
But didn't check Him out till I got bored
And then I saw the light; I got saved
I used to look for other ways
But given time, I'd understand
I knew the Bible had the plan
Whether you're in trouble or livin' in a bubble
You stay in the light, say in the light
Even when you're shaken you're never God-forsaken
Just stay in the light, stay in the light
Ah, ah, ah, ah stay in the light, stay in the light
Ah, ah, ah, ah stay in the light
Well, the Bible was divinely inspired
And if you can't believe it, you need to try
Got the things of Heaven all can use
And a plan for man where you just can't lose
You now, it's all right, it's O.K.
He'll let you be your stubborn way
But Jesus Christ is comin', man
I know your times are in His hands
Whether you're in trouble or livin' in a bubble
You stay in the light, say in the light
Even when you're shaken you'll never fall to Satan
If you stay in the light, stay in the light
Ah, ah, ah, ah stay in the light, stay in the light
Ah, ah, ah, ah stay in the light
I'm gonna show ya Psalm hundred-nineteen
The Bible is your lamp
I'm gonna show ya the Bible is your lamp
So stay in the light!
Well you can tell by the way I used to walk
I was once a man with no time for God
And you may doubt that it's for sure
But I'm a Christian now since I'm reborn
And now, it's all right, it's O.K.
And you may look for other ways
You need the light to understand
So use your Bible as your lamp
Whether you're in trouble or livin' in a bubble
You stay in the light, say in the light
Even when you're shaken Ephesians 5 verse 8 says  
Just stay in the light, stay in the light
Ah, ah, ah, ah stay in the light, stay in the light
Ah, ah, ah, ah stay in the light
I'm gonna show ya Psalm hundred-nineteen
The Bible is your lamp
I'm gonna show ya the Bible is your lamp
So stay in the light!
