When The Light Came

Verse 1

Down in the valley where the shadows run cold

I was barely breathing barely holding on

Every road I traveled led me back to the wall

Every name I called out fell and faded gone

But then a light came breaking through the grey

A voice that whispered softer than the rain

Pre-Chorus

When I had nothing left to give

When I had nothing left to stand

Chorus

You lift me up

Higher than the mountains call

You lift me up

When I'm about to fall

Your name is the anchor in the storm

Jesus you lift me up Jesus you lift me up [Post-Chorus]

Up up up

Into the light

Up up up Into the light

You hold me through the night [Verse 2]

I remember kneeling on a broken floor

With a heart like thunder and a soul so tired

Every hope I carried was a closing door

Every dream I chased was a dying fire

But your mercy found me where I couldn't see

Your grace came running and it rescued me

Pre-Chorus

When I had nothing left to give

When I had nothing left to stand

Chorus

You lift me up

Higher than the mountains call

You lift me up

When I'm about to fall

Your name is the anchor in the storm

Jesus you lift me up Jesus you lift me up

Post-Chorus

Up up up

Into the light

Up up up

You hold me through night Mighty is the name that breaks the chains

Mighty is the love that ends the pain

Mighty mighty is your reign

Jesus you lift me up again

Chorus

You [Chorus]

lift me up

Higher than the mountains call

You lift me up

When I'm about to fall

Your name is the anchor in the storm

Jesus you lift me up Jesus you lift me up

Post-Chorus

Up up up

Into the light

Up up up

You hold me through the night
