Lyrics
Intro – SATB choir, soft organ swell, hall reverb
Choir: soft hum removed → only chords on “Ah-less chord vowel”
Organ / Piano warm chord bed
No humming, no ad-libs
Verse 1 – Lead + soft choir pad
I walk this road of dust and dawn,
yet every step is held by Light.
Your grace is written in my soul,
a whisper guiding through the night.
No fear can rule a heart You lift,
no shadow steals what You ignite.
Choir: “Amen… Amen…” (SATB, sustained, no humming)
Pre-Chorus – Lead + call-response choir
Your love is not a judgment flame—
it’s the warmth that draws me home.
Choir (response): Home… Home…
Your hand does not condemn my fall—
it lifts me when I walk alone.
Choir: Lift him up… lift him up…
Chorus – Full choir + lead
You are the Light that lifts my soul,
the grace that keeps me whole.
Jesus, my compass through the storms,
the Fire that makes me bold.
Every breath I breathe is Yours—
Your love forever calls my name.
Verse 2 – Lead + piano-only opening
I know Your path is wide and long,
a spiral rising into dawn.
We walk in cycles, life by life,
but still Your mercy carries on.
You never strike with wrath or fear—
You guide me gently when I'm wrong.
Pre-Chorus – fuller harmony
Your truth is not a heavy chain—
it’s the road that leads to peace.
Choir: Peace… Peace…
When I fall far from Your sight,
Your grace still waits for me.
Choir: Come back home… come back home…
Instrumental Break – Organ + drums + handclaps
Handclaps steady, tambourine shimmer
Choir humming removed — only vowel chords “Ooo” without hum effect
SATB chord swell → brass accents
Bridge – Spoken-sung lead + choir
I fear no darkness, for You walk with me.
You carved the stars, yet breathe through me.
Jesus, Brother, Teacher, Light—
show me how to rise and be.
Choir (layered, powerful):
Rise and be… rise and be…
Walk in the Light of the Lord…
Final Chorus – Full choir + lead, big gospel energy
You are the Light that lifts my soul,
the grace that keeps me whole.
Jesus, the way that shows me home—
Your truth is pure and bold.
Every road I walk, You shine—
Your love forever calls my name.
Forever Yours, forever mine—
I rise within Your flame.
Outro – Gentle choir, fading
Choir: Amen… Amen… Amen… (SATB, calm and warm)
Organ holds final chord, slow fade
