Into The Light Lyrics


Verse 1:
I was stranded in shadows
It was all I ever knew
I was pushed down in the darkness
Lost all hope of breaking through
There's no life inside that prison
No windows, just these walls and chains
But love was on a mission
And I never will forget the day
You woke my heart up
You made me brave
You lifted my eyes
And called me by my name
Chorus:
Come on, come on out of the darkness
Come on, come on out of the night
No more, no more living in the shadows now
Step into the light

Verse 2:
When I was shaky, You were steady
Like a lighthouse off the coast
Always willing, always ready
To to lead this wandering heart back home
And now I still got bruises
And scars don't lie
But they're the proof that
I got a second chance at life
Chorus:
Come on, come on out of the darkness
Come on, come on out of the night
No more, no more living in the shadows now
Step into the light
Come on, come on no looking back now
Come on, come on run for your life
No more, no more living in the shadows now
Step into the light
Bridge:
There's a break in the clouds
The sun's raining down
It's calling me out
This is my hallelujah
Night turns to day
All my fear melts away
I lift my hands up and say
This is my hallelujah
Chorus:
Come on, come on out of the darkness
Come on, come on out of the night
No more, no more living in the shadows now
Step into the light
Come on, come on out of the darkness
Come on, come on out of the night
No more, no more living in the shadows now
Step into the light
Come on, come on no looking back now
Come on, come on run for your life
No more, no more living in the shadows now
Step into the light
