Killing Shadows, Reviving Light

Shadows creep, your asleep

You feel a spark

The light forces the dark out

The shadows shout

There is hope, you can cope

So lift your head

You are no longer dead

Keep the movement of your soul

On the rise

Dont blink, open your eyes

Dont fall for those lies

Stand tall dont let anything move you

Stand tall in everything you do

Suffocate the shadows, let them die

Pick it up and show them the light

When all your challenges block your view

Just maybe

Stand back, look at what was given to you



The water wall, its crashing hard

It pushes you down

He soaks it in, just like our sin

You cannot breath

Until you believe, He is King

Dont worry

It wont take too long

Keep on through the bad times

Bad times

Dont ever say goodbye

Dont fall for those lies

Stand tall dont let anything move you

Stand tall in everything you do



Suffocate the shadows, let them die

Pick it up and show them the light

When all your challenges block your view

Just maybe

Stand back, look at what was given to you

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This came from just the thought of darkness against light and the verse I have beside my bed that I read everynight...

Psalm 42:7 - Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me
