Hold On To The Dimmest Light

[Verse 1]
On the floor
Back against the wall
Every prayer feels
Like it hits and falls
Thick night
Won’t let me see my hands
Every dream I had
Slipping through my fingers like sand
[Pre-Chorus]
But I hear a whisper in the black
“Child
I’ve never left your side”
If there’s a spark I can’t see yet
That’s enough to keep alive
[Chorus]
So I hold on to the dimmest light
When the dark keeps screaming I’m out of time
When the ground gives way and I lose my fight
I close my eyes and I trust Your eyes
If all I’ve got is a flicker left inside
I’ll hold on
I’ll hold on
To the dimmest light
[Verse 2]
Cracked faith
Shaking in my chest
Every “why” I ask
Echoes back
No rest
But Your name
Feels steady on my tongue
One word braver
Than a thousand I had sung
[Pre-Chorus]
You turn my breaking into breath
You turn my ashes into sky
If there’s a thread I still can cling to
That’s the thread that pulls me high
[Chorus]
So I hold on to the dimmest light
When the dark keeps screaming I’m out of time
When the ground gives way and I lose my fight
I close my eyes and I trust Your eyes
If all I’ve got is a flicker left inside
I’ll hold on
I’ll hold on
To the dimmest light
[Bridge]
Rock bottom feels like the ending (hey!)
But that’s where You start again
In the pit where I stop pretending
You call my name
My Friend
You’re the glow that grows in my ruins
You’re the dawn behind this night
If my hands can barely reach You
I’ll still lift them to the sky
[Chorus]
So I hold on to the dimmest light
When the dark keeps screaming I’m out of time
When the tears still fall and I ask You “why?”
I breathe Your word
I believe Your mind
If all I’ve got is a flicker left inside
I’ll hold on
I’ll hold on
To the dimmest light
[Chorus]
I’ll hold on to the dimmest light (I’ll hold on)
Till the sunrise burns through this endless night
When You call my name I’ll rise and climb
‘Cause even here You are by my side
If all I’ve got is a whisper of Your life
I’ll hold on
I’ll hold on
To the dimmest light (yeah)
I’ll hold on
I’ll hold on
To the dimmest light

Male vocals tender in the verses, stacking into rich harmonies on the pre-chorus and a soaring, congregational-style chorus. Add claps and toms as the song lifts, with a final key change and ad-libbed runs in the last chorus for a triumphant finish., gospel, pop, light
