When the Truth Comes to Light
[by Robert Ramage]
Intro:
(Soft piano, slow build — reflective)
They say love begins with trust…
But wisdom teaches us how to guard the heart.
God walks beside us, not ahead of the truth.
Verse 1
You asked me once if I trusted you
Like trust is something freely given
But trust is built with time and proof
Not just words we’re living in
I’ve learned hearts don’t break all at once
They fade when pieces go
You give someone the keys too fast
They leave you hollow, cold
Verse 2
I don’t doubt the love you carry
Or the fire inside your chest
But love needs air, and love needs skin
And moments that can’t be texted yet
You can’t feel a hand through a screen
Or a heartbeat late at night
Real love lives where two souls meet
In the daylight, not just typed
Chorus
If it’s true love, it won’t rush the road
God don’t hide His plans in the dark
He builds what lasts with steady hands
Not fear, not faithless hearts
When it’s real, it won’t need proof
It won’t live behind a lie
God’s hands guide the honest way
And the truth comes to light
Verse 3
You spoke of Christ and miracles
Of wounds He came to heal
I believe in grace, redemption too
But faith walks hand in hand with real
God gives peace, not anxious nights
Not questions eating at your soul
If it pulls me from my center
That’s not the path I’m meant to go
Verse 4
I’m not closing doors in anger
I’m not turning love away
I’m choosing growth and clarity
At the start of a brand-new day
If God’s will is written clearly
It won’t beg or twist or bend
What’s meant for me will meet me
Not just promise “someday… when”
Chorus
If it’s true love, it won’t rush the road
God don’t hide His plans in the dark
He builds what lasts with steady hands
Not fear, not borrowed hearts
When it’s real, it won’t need proof
It won’t live behind a lie
God’s hands guide the honest way
And the truth comes to light
Bridge
(Slower, emotional lift)
Faith without wisdom can blind the eyes
Hope without truth can still mislead
God’s voice is calm, it doesn’t shout
It brings you peace, not need
I surrender what I can’t control
Lay it down, step back in line
If it’s meant to walk beside me
It won’t stay trapped in time
Final Chorus
If it’s true love, it’ll stand the test
In the open, in the clear
God’s timing don’t need pressure
Love don’t live in fear
When it’s right, it’ll meet my life
Not hide behind a sign
God’s hands guide the honest way
And the truth comes to light
Outro
(Soft resolve — acoustic fade)
I trust God more than promises
More than words that sound just right
He leads me where my heart is safe
And the truth…
Always comes to light.
