Light in the Pit

[Intro]
Yeah
Even down there
I see You
Listen
[Verse 1]
Deep in the pit, I was pressed to the floor
Thought I was done, I was kicking at the door
Cold in my chest, heavy in my head
But You sat right there at the foot of my bed
I cried, "Why me?" in the middle of the night
You said, "Child, hold on, I already won that fight"
Dust on my Bible, tears on my face
Still You pulled me close, wrapped me up in grace
[Chorus]
I live, even when it's dark
'Cause I know You’re by my side
Got a little, little flame in my heart
Yeah, my Lord is my light
I believe, I believe, I believe
When I fall, You hear me pray
I live, even when it's dark
'Cause my God still makes a way (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Bills on the table, pain in my bones
Silence so loud when I’m feeling alone
But You talk back when I call Your name
Turn my panic to a quiet kind of praise
Knocked to my knees, that’s where I rise
Got the whole truth sitting right behind my eyes
Faith in my lungs, I’m breathing You in
Every "Amen" like I’m starting again
[Chorus]
I live, even when it's dark
'Cause I know You’re by my side
Got a little, little flame in my heart
Yeah, my Lord is my light
I believe, I believe, I believe
When I fall, You hear me pray
I live, even when it's dark
'Cause my God still makes a way
[Bridge]
I’ll keep praying
I’ll keep waiting (yeah)
Even when I can’t see clear
I know that You’re still here
I’ll keep praying
I’ll keep saying
“You are good, You are good”
Till the fear disappears
[Chorus]
I live, even when it's dark
'Cause I know You’re by my side
Got a little, little flame in my heart
Yeah, my Lord is my light
I believe, I believe, I believe
When I fall, You hear me pray
I live, even when it's dark
'Cause my God still makes a way (makes a way)

Chorus lifts with stacked harmonies and a bright organ swell, energy building each time then easing back to an intimate, close-mic verse., gospel, light
