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,

a stran ger with no hope.

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.

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

My dead heart now is beat ing, my deep est stain’s now clean.

Your breath fills up my lungs.

and (Fsus2)Now I’m free, now I’m free.

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.

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.

Lift my hands and spin a round,

see the light that I have found.

Oh, the mar vel ous light, mar vel ous light.

Lift my hands and spin a round,

see the light that I have found.

Oh, the mar vel ous light, mar vel ous light.

(Am)Sin has (G)lost its pow er,

(Am)From the (G)grave You’ve ris en

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

Oh, the mar vel ous light, mar vel ous light.
