Shining Through the Dark

Yeah, I’m rising up now, shouting out,

From the shadows, I’ve found my route.

Praising higher, kings and crowns,

Breaking chains, I am unbowed.

Tried to break me down, envy in your eyes,

Playing sweet but your truth was a disguise.

Lies like poison, I saw right through,

But I stand tall, I got nothing to lose.

On the mountain top, where I find my peace,

No more tears, my pain’s released.

Shackles fallen, I walk free,

Laughing loud, ‘cause I believe.

I praise him up, baby, I praise him UP,

I praise him up, baby, I praise him UP.

He’s my Light, my guiding star,

Through the darkness, knows who we are.

Lurking fears, devil’s game,

Ferocious tongue, trying to bring my name.

But I got Jesus, my sword and shield,

His love’s the power that’s revealed.

Climbing higher, I claim my right,

In His strength, I ignite.

No more shadows, just the sun,

Victory’s already won.

I praise him up, baby, I praise him UP,

I praise him up, baby, I praise him UP.

He’s my Light, my guiding star,

Through the darkness, knows who we are.

From the deepest dark to the brightest dawn,

His grace will carry me on.

No more darkness, only the fire,

Lift my voice, I’ll never tire.

Yeah, I praise him UP, Isaiah heart,

From the shadows, a brand new start.

He’s my Light, shining bright,

In my darkness, He is my light.
