V1
The lights are blinding
Driving Home
On this two way road
You’re in control
But you’re losing it now

You’ve cut ties with everyone
Made your wish
That this could all be done
I know
Because I’ve been there

Chorus
Hold on
I’ll stay by you
Till this is through
In battle cries
We will rise
Into the light

V2
When it seems impossible
To hope when you feel strangled
By a world of lies
It will addict us to anything
To escape momentary affliction
Its so appealing
Just to be set free

What if someone told you
There is a place
You don’t have to hide
The truth
Where your shame
Doesn’t have to bind you

Bridge:

Stop now
Lay it all down
Step back
This ledge you’re standing on
You’re ground is broken
So is mine
Let’s close our eyes
Let it take us by surprise
That we could be alive

We could be alive

Let go
Of Everything
That holds us back
From freedom

Let go
Starting Now
Let’s believe
That we will rise
From death to life
That we were made
To feel the sun
Singing over you and me

  • God wants our salvation
    “…whenever our sins press hard against us, whenever Satan would drive us to despair, we must hold up this shield, that God does not want us to be overwhelmed in everlasting destruction, for He has ordained His Son to be the salvation of the world.” - John Calvin, NT Commentary on John p75 (HT: Dan Morse) [...]
  • God’s free love
    “For there is no calm haven where our minds can rest until we come to God’s free love.” - John Calvin, NT Commentary on John p75 (HT: Dan Morse)
  • Christ is Everything
    “When you put your trust in Christ, the overpowering attraction of the world is broken. You are a corpse to the world, and the world is a corpse to you. Or to put it positively, you are a ‘new creation’ (Galatians 6:15). The old you is dead. A new you is alive — the you [...]
  • Full pardon
    “Oh! rejoice in the richness of our salvation! When the Lord pardoned our sins, he did not pardon half of them, and leave some of them on the book—but with one stroke of the pen he gave a full receipt for all our debts. When we went down into the fountain filled with blood, and washed, [...]
  • As Broad as Creation
    “The gospel as recorded in Scripture is as broad as creation. Since the church has been sent to make known this good news in all of life, in actions and in words, the church’s mission is, likewise, as broad as creation.” - Mike Goheen and Craig Bartholomew, Living at the Crossroads (Grand Rapids, Mi.; Baker Academic, [...]
  • Forward lies the crown
    “In our Christian pilgrimage it is well, for the most part, to be looking forward. Forward lies the crown—and onward is the goal. Whether it is for hope, for joy, for consolation, or for the inspiring of our love—the future must, after all, be the grand object of the eye of faith. Looking into the future, [...]
  • A dark shadow over the world
    “Christ’s salvation is of such a kind that it expresses the ultimate reality of guilt and exposes it in all its stark actuality. It exposes it in terms of the wrath of God, but at the same time manifests in the midst of it all the infinite and overwhelming love of God, and enacts the [...]
