Verse 1
The night was heavier than my breathing
The road forgot which way was home
I learned the language of the dark
By walking it alone
Every prayer felt like a question
Thrown into an open sky
I didn’t know if anyone
Was listening for my reply
Pre-Chorus
But heaven is not hard of hearing
And mercy does not lose the way
Chorus
I lit a signal flare in the silence
And You saw it before it burned
You were already on the horizon
Before I knew to turn
You didn’t come like thunder breaking
You came like a steady hand pulling me up as I was sinking
When I ran out of every reason
You were the way I was found
Jesus, You rescued me
Verse 2
The distance wasn’t absence
The waiting wasn’t proof of no
You were moving under cover
In ways I couldn’t yet see
Every second felt suspended
Like the world was holding breath
But You were threading rescue
Protecting me all along
Pre-Chorus
Love doesn’t hurry toward the moment
It arrives exactly when it’s needed
Chorus
I lit a signal flare in the silence
And You saw it before it burned
You were already on the horizon
Before I knew to turn
You didn’t come like thunder breaking
You came like a steady hand pulling me up as I was sinking
When I ran out of every reason
You were the way I was found
Jesus, You rescued me
Bridge
Not every rescue splits the sea
Some arrive quietly
Like dawn deciding to appear
Like a peace beyond understanding
Even in the dark
You are there, shining your light, leading me home
Oooohhh oooohhh
Outro / Ethereal (very soft, layered)
Already coming…
Already near…
(whispered overlap)
Already here…
Light on the horizon
Light on the horizon
