1st Verse: "all these thoughts will try to weigh you down, but not this time" means that the person has a new/stronger relationship with God and can no longer be swayed or persuaded by the world, because the follow Him.
2nd Verse: The person has been freed by their decision to follow Christ (one of chris tomlin's song comes to mind.. "My chains are gone, I've been set free.."), and like the preceding verse, the person follows Him now so he or she cannot be separated from God by anyone else's thoughts or actions
Chorus: I think this is refers to the 'darkness' in the world, how screwed up our world is; Adam's saying that the follower of Christ is now the light of the world, and now they must shine their light wherever they go (be disciples)
3rd Verse: pretty much the same idea as the other two
4th Verse: along the same lines as the chorus; spread the word. be disciples. be an image of Christ.
5th verse: "A thousand heartbeats beat in time and makes this dark planet come alive" <- i see this as all of the followers of Christ having the same goal in mind and coming together to spread the word(being on the same page, more or less).
