Everlasting Light

Intro

Yeah

Uh-huh

Let it rise

Verse 1

Woke up with a purpose that I never could have bought

Grace hit my morning like a sunrise I forgot

Every single scar became a story that I tell

Chains fell off my shoulders when I finally learned to kneel

They counted all my failures like a ledger full of red

But mercy kept on counting and it never reached the end

I was running running running from a love that wouldn't quit

Now I'm standing standing standing in the middle of it

Chorus

Everlasting light

Everlasting light

Burning through the night

Burning through the night

I ain't walking in the dark no more

I ain't walking in the dark no more

Post-Chorus

Shine on

Shine on

Shine on me

Verse 2

Used to chase the applause from a crowd that wouldn't stay

Built my whole foundation on a castle made of clay

Then a voice cut through the noise and it called me by my name

Said the broken ones are exactly who I came to save

So I traded all my trophies for a peace I couldn't earn

Watched my old life scatter like the ashes when they burn

Now I testify to anyone who'll listen to the sound

Of a sinner who was lost and a Savior who was found

Pre-Chorus

I was drowning in the deep

You reached down and pulled me free

Now the only thing I need

Is the light that's leading me

Chorus

Everlasting light

Everlasting light

Burning through the night

Burning through the night

I ain't walking in the dark no more

I ain't walking in the dark no more

Post-Chorus

Shine on

Shine on

Shine on me

Verse 3

Fast flow

Faith grows

Where the river of forgiveness and it never overflows

Humble heart

Holy ghost

Every blessing that I got I gotta give it back the most

They said I'd never make it

Said my past was too deep

But the One who wrote the heavens wrote a promise over me

So I lift my hands higher

Set my old self on fire

Every doubt I ever carried now a testimony choir

Bridge

Let it rise

Let it rise

From the ashes to the skies

Let it rise

Let it rise

Every tear is sanctified

Chorus

Everlasting light

Everlasting light

Burning through the night

Burning through the night

I ain't walking in the dark no more

I ain't walking in the dark no more

Post-Chorus

Shine on

Shine on

Shine on me
