Lyrics

In to mar vel ous light I’m run ning, out of dark ness, out of shame.

By the cross You (G)are the truth, You (Fsus2)are the life, You are the way.

I once was fa ther less,

Your kind ness wak ened me, (Fsus2)wak ened me from my sleep.

Your love, it beck ons deep ly, a call to come and die.

By grace now I will come and (Fsus2)take this life, take Your life.

Sin has (G)lost its pow er,

death has lost its sting.

From the (G)grave You’ve ris en

vic to rious ly.

In to mar vel ous light I’m run ning, out of dark ness, out of shame.
