Awake in your light

(Verse 1 – mid-tempo, melodic vocals with building intensity)
I was lost in the shadows, chasing ghosts in the night
Broken pieces of me, scattered under streetlights
Every promise I made just crumbled in my hands
Screaming questions to the sky, didn't understand
But then You called my name through the silence and the storm
Pulled me from the wreckage, made this dead heart reborn
(Pre-Chorus – tension building, guitars getting heavier)
I can't hide anymore, these scars tell my story
Every tear that I cried led me straight to Your glory
(Chorus – big, soaring anthemic hook with layered vocals, crowd-sing-along energy)
I'm awake in Your light, burning brighter than fire
You saved me from the fall, lifted me higher and higher
No more running, no more hiding my pain
In Your arms I'm found, and I'll never be the same
Awake! Awake! In the grace that covers me
Jesus, You're the only One who set my spirit free!
(Verse 2 – similar energy, slightly more urgent)
World tried to define me, said I'd never be enough
Voices in my head screaming I was just too rough
But You saw through the mess, saw the man I could be
Spoke truth over lies and You gave Your life for me
Now the chains are breaking, hear the heavens roar
I'm rising from the ashes, won't be silent anymore
(Pre-Chorus – heavier this time)
No more fear in my chest, Your love is my defense
Every battle I face, You've already won it since
(Chorus – even bigger, with some vocal runs and harmonized "whoa-ohs")
I'm awake in Your light, burning brighter than fire
You saved me from the fall, lifted me higher and higher
No more running, no more hiding my pain
In Your arms I'm found, and I'll never be the same
Awake! Awake! In the grace that covers me
Jesus, You're the only One who set my spirit free!
(Bridge – breakdown style: heavy guitars drop to half-time, raw emotional vocals then building to a scream/shout section)
I was drowning... (I was drowning)
You pulled me out... (You pulled me out)
All my doubt is fading now
I surrender, take me now!
(Short scream/build: LET THE OLD ME DIE!)
Rise up! Rise up! This is my revival cry!
(Final Chorus – full band explosion, double-time feel or massive layered vocals)
I'm awake in Your light, burning brighter than fire!
Redeemed by the blood, fueled by holy desire!
No more running, no more chains on my soul
With You I am whole, and Your story's my goal
Awake! Awake! Let the whole world see
I'm alive in Christ, and He's alive in me!
(Outro – fading with clean guitars and echoing vocals)
Awake... in Your light...
Yeah, I'm awake... forever...
