lyrics

I have walked in sin’s dark shadow, I’ve been tempted by its sway;
I’ve been held by all its treasure and have wandered far away.
But Your light grows ever brighter, leading onward to that shore,
Where my heart, so dark and lonely, seeks a refuge from the storm.

I have tasted of life’s freedom, Found it bitter in the end;
Left the verdant bonds of heaven for the valleys of my sin.
Still Your mercy calls me homeward from this distant, desert land,
Where my soul, made dry and thirsty, finds salvation in Your hand.

So I stand as one forgiven in this land where darkness fades;
Where Your love restores the broken by Your mercy and Your grace.
Sin and death have been defeated, You have conquered by Your blood;
And this story stands completed, In Your never-failing love.
