Shine Your Light

Verse 1

Woke up in a dark room,

The light feels so far away.

These walls they whisper my name,

But the echoes only bring me pain.

Every breath feels like a burden,

Every step sinking into sand.

I’m reaching out, but no one’s there.

Just me and the darkness hand in hand.

Chorus

But I know there’s a Savior who walks on water,

Who calms the storm with just a word.

Tossed at sea, He’s my anchor.

In this darkness He’s my Lord.

Oh Jesus lift me higher,

Out of this valley deep and wide.

Shine Your light into these shadows,

Be my strength, my hope, my guide.

Verse 2

Tears fall like silent rain,

Washing over a heart that’s numb.

I’ve tried to look, I’ve tried to stand,

But all my battles won’t go to plan.

I hear a voice it calls me still,

In the quiet of my mind.

It’s gentle, it’s soft, yet powerful.

A promise of peace I long to find.

Chorus

But I know there’s a Savior who walks on water,

Who calms the storm with just a word.

Tossed at sea, He’s my anchor.

In this darkness He’s my Lord.

Oh Jesus lift me higher,

Out of this valley deep and wide.

Shine Your light into these shadows,

Be my strength, my hope, my guide.

Bridge

Even when I can’t see the way,

Even when the night is long,

I’ll hold onto the hand that saves.

Cause You’re the one who calms the waves.

Chorus

But I know there’s a Savior who walks on water,

Who calms the storm with just a word.

Tossed at sea, He’s my anchor.

In this darkness He’s my Lord.

Oh Jesus lift me higher,

Out of this valley deep and wide.

Shine Your light into these shadows,

Be my strength, my hope, my guide.

In my weakness You are strong.

In the darkness You are the dawn.

Jesus, You are my song,

Forever with You I’ll carry on.
