[Intro]
D F#m Em G
[Verse 1]
D
F#m
And I can’t tell the way up from down
Em
It’s a cold sky
G
Above this heart of mine
D
And this feeling I know
F#m
Strange the way it comes and it goes
Em
It’s like the moonlight
C
Only sometimes
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em7 F#m G
All these walls I built to keep myself from hurting
Em7 F#m G
Or maybe I’ve forgotten how to feel
Em F#m G
I know that I should be a lamp that’s burning
Em F#m G
But it’s just the way that my heart seems to be
[Chorus]
A G D G
Oh light of the mor-ning
A G D G
Come, shine in my soul a-gain
[Verse 2]
D
It’s been miles on the road
F#m
Yet I know that You won’t let me go
Em G
It’s your kindness that will lead me home
D
And the stars with their light
F#m
Leaking through the cracks in the sky
Em C
Like a memory of a better time
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Em7 F#m G
Well I caught a glimpse but only for a moment
Em F#m G
Or were the stars there only in my dreams?
Em F#m G
I want to feel the summer and the sunrise
Em7 F#m G
But it’s just the way that my heart seems to be
[Chorus]
A G D G
Oh light of the mor-ning
A G D G
Come, shine in my soul a-gain
[Bridge]
Bm A
You won’t break a reed though it bends to the ground
Em
You still fill a vessel though the water pours out
G
You won’t quench a fire that’s withering down
A
But where are You now?
G
Though the water rises and threatens to drown
Em
The roaring waves will heed Your voice when they hear the sound
G
In stillness and in reverence like weapons laid down
A
Lord, I need You now
[Ending]
A Em D
