lyrics

I came to you in the dark of night, hoping to find my way
Half expecting that you just might tell me that I’d gone astray
I told you my eyes had been opened wide, to all the need and the pain
I could see things from every side, and didn’t want to turn back again

I thought I could help to set people’s hearts free
Then the truth in you reached out to the truth in me, and

You helped me find my voice, and you offered me a choice
To surrender my self and make all things new
So I’ll take up my call to shine God’s lovelight for all
I’ll sing the song I was meant to sing because of you.

Now colors glow brighter and everywhere I can taste it, smell it, feel it on my skin
Electricity in the air and the spark turns to fire within
You’ve crossed over rivers of hate and fear, building bridges of trust and love
Letting bells of justice ring loud and clear while compassion rains down from above

That’s the kind of architect I’d like to be
Tearing walls down for open road, and you saw the promise in me, and

You helped me find my voice, and you offered me a choice
To surrender my self and make all things new
So I’ll take up my call to shine God’s lovelight for all
I’ll sing the song I was meant to sing because of you.
I'll sing the song I was meant to sing because of you.
