Changing SearchBar Text color in Android

See attached

I am using a searchbar with the theme below (I know little about Android themes)

How do I make the text typed, in this case, "Hi Mom" white?

<style name="_Credential" parent="android:Theme.Holo.Light.DarkActionBar">
  <item name="android:editTextBackground">@drawable/credential_edit_text_holo_light</item>
  <item name="android:textColorHighlight">#99005984</item>
  <item name="android:textSelectHandleLeft">@drawable/credential_text_select_handle_left</item>
  <item name="android:textSelectHandleRight">@drawable/credential_text_select_handle_right</item>
  <item name="android:textSelectHandle">@drawable/credential_text_select_handle_middle</item>
  <item name="android:autoCompleteTextViewStyle">@style/AutoCompleteTextViewCredential</item>
  <item name="android:listChoiceIndicatorMultiple">@drawable/credential_btn_check_holo_light</item>
  <item name="android:listChoiceIndicatorSingle">@drawable/credential_btn_radio_holo_light</item>
