(Verse 1)
In the valley low, where shadows darkly creep,
I wandered lost and weary, my spirit filled with sleep.
A slumber born of sorrow, a weight upon my soul,
Each step a heavy burden, beyond my own control.
The rain fell hard upon me, mirroring my tears,
Lost in the confusion, consumed by all my fears.
(Chorus)
But Jesus reached down and lifted me, set my spirit free,
From the depths of sorrow, carried me to the sea,
The sea of His mercy, where healing waters flow,
His love, a lighthouse guiding, helping me to grow.
(Rap)
Yo, check the mic, one two, this ain't no game,
Story 'bout my struggles, whisperin' His name.
From valley low to mountain high I climbed,
Through trials and temptations, faith redefined.
Remember nights I doubted, felt alone and lost,
The weight of the world pressing, counting the cost.
But His grace surrounded, a comfort so deep,
Whispered promises, secrets He would keep.
He saw my tears, He felt my pain,
Lifted me higher, broke every chain.
Now I stand tall, my spirit takes flight,
Guided by His love, burning ever so bright.
Yeah, the journey's been rugged, the road long and steep,
Through stormy weather, secrets I would keep.
But His love's a compass, guiding my way,
Leading me to sunshine, brighter than day.
Every scar a lesson, every tear a prayer,
His love is the answer, beyond all compare.
So I lift my voice higher, sing His praises loud,
For redemption and mercy, amongst the praising crowd.
So keep your head up, let your spirit fly,
With Jesus by your side, you'll reach for the sky.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeaaaah
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
Jesus saw my broken spirit, He felt my aching heart,
And in His boundless mercy, He played a brand new part.
(Verse 3)
I stumbled and I faltered, I fell upon my knees,
The burden of my failings, carried on the breeze.
But in my deepest darkness, a light began to gleam,
A promise whispered softly, a hope-filled, loving dream.
(beat) Rap jazz beat
(Chorus)
But Jesus reached down and lifted me, set my spirit free,
From the depths of sorrow, carried me to the sea,
The sea of His mercy, where healing waters flow,
His love, a lighthouse guiding, helping me to grow.
(Outro)
His love, His love, forevermore,
Will guide me to the shore, and so much more.
His love, His love, a never-ending grace,
His love, His love, in every time and place.
