Lyrics

I woke up in dark ness,

sur round ed by si lence.

Oh, where,

where have I gone?

I woke to re al i ty

los ing its grip on me.

Oh, where,

where have I gone?

’Cause I can (F)see the light

be (F)fore I see the sun rise.

You (Gm)called and You (Eb)shout ed,

(Bb)broke through my (F)deaf ness.

Now I’m (Gm)breath ing in and (Eb)breath ing out.

(Bb)I’m a live a gain.

You (Gm)shat tered my (Eb)dark ness,

(Bb)washed a way my (F)blind ness.

Now I’m (Gm)breath ing in and (Eb)breath ing out.

(Bb)I’m a live a gain.

Late have I loved You.

You wait ed for me, I searched for You.

What took me so long?

I was look ing out side,

as if love would ev er want to hide.

I’m find ing I was wrong.

’Cause I can (F)feel the wind

be (F)fore it hits my skin.

You (Gm)called and You (Eb)shout ed,

(Bb)broke through my (F)deaf ness.

Now I’m (Gm)breath ing in and (Eb)breath ing out.

(Bb)I’m a live a gain.

You (Gm)shat tered my (Eb)dark ness,

(Bb)washed a way my (F)blind ness.

Now I’m (Gm)breath ing in and (Eb)breath ing out.

(Bb)I’m a live a gain.

(F)I’m a live a gain.

’Cause I want You, yes, I want You.

I need You, and I’ll do what ev er I have to just to get through, ’cause I love You, and I love You.

About “Alive Again

Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "Alive Again"?
Yes — the score is rendered server-side from the publisher MusicXML using Verovio (the same engine RISM and OpenScore use). Standard piano notation, treble + bass staves, real chord symbols, key signature Eb. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
What key is "Alive Again" by Matt Maher played in?
Alive Again is arranged in the key of Eb on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.
What's the tempo (BPM) of "Alive Again"?
The arrangement plays at 120 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
Is "Alive Again" easy to play on piano?
This is a medium-difficulty arrangement. Most players can learn it within a few practice sessions using the speed control.
Can I download sheet music for "Alive Again"?
Yes — registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
Who composed "Alive Again"?

What other songs by Matt Maher can I play here?
Try "Adoration", "Behold the Lamb of God", "EMPTY AND BEAUTIFUL". All are in our player with color-coded notes; pick the one matching your level.
Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "Alive Again" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature Eb, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
Yes — slow the tempo from 120 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
Why can I click a note in the score?
Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
