Lead Us Into Light

[Title] Lead Us Into Light [Intro] Lead us into light Hold us through the night Lead us into light Till the morning comes [Verse 1] When the room is quiet And the hours move slow When the heart is tired With nowhere else to go When the world feels heavy And hope is hard to find Let a softer mercy Rest upon the mind [Pre-Chorus] May the breath grow calm May the fear grow still May a deeper love Do what we cannot will [Chorus] Asato maa sad gamaya Tamaso maa jyotir gamaya Mrityor maa amritam gamaya Om shanti shanti shanti Lead us into light Hold us through the night Lead us into light Till the morning comes [Verse 2] For the mother waiting By a bedside chair For the father hiding All his pain in prayer For the child who trembles For the friend who cries For the lonely stranger Looking toward the skies [Pre-Chorus] May the breath grow calm May the fear grow still May a deeper love Do what we cannot will [Chorus] Asato maa sad gamaya Tamaso maa jyotir gamaya Mrityor maa amritam gamaya Om shanti shanti shanti Lead us into light Hold us through the night Lead us into light Till the morning comes [Bridge] Not every wound will vanish Not every tear will dry But love can sit beside us When we do not know why Not every prayer is answered The way we hoped it would But something still can hold us Something still is good [Final Chorus] Asato maa sad gamaya Tamaso maa jyotir gamaya Mrityor maa amritam gamaya Om shanti shanti shanti Asato maa sad gamaya Tamaso maa jyotir gamaya Mrityor maa amritam gamaya Om shanti shanti shanti Lead us into light Hold us through the night Lead us into light Till the morning comes [Outro] May the breath grow calm May the fear grow still May the heart be held When the world stands still Lead us into light Hold us through the night Lead us into light Om shanti shanti shanti
