[Verse 1] Set out walking from Haran’s gate, The wind was soft, the hour was late, A whisper called, I couldn’t wait, To see what lay before me. Left behind the walls of stone, Followed faith out on my own, Every mile felt half like home, Half like mystery. [Chorus] Under the stars of promise, burning through the night, I heard the hush of heaven say, “Everything’s all right.” Lay down your fears, let the embers glow, Peace will rise where the rivers flow. Under the stars of promise, we go. [Verse 2] Kings and strangers crossed my path, Some with kindness, some with wrath, Still I walked that pilgrim’s math, Counting steps by grace. Built an altar on the plain, Called His name through joy and pain, The smoke rose up like sweet refrain, And lingered in that place. [Chorus] Under the stars of promise, burning through the night, I heard the hush of heaven say, “Everything’s all right.” Lay down your fears, let the embers glow, Peace will rise where the rivers flow. Under the stars of promise, we go. [Bridge] Sometimes the road feels long and dry, Sometimes your faith’s a lullaby, But even in the silence high, The Spirit hums along. “Lie down in safety, dream of light, Your prayer’s a spark in the velvet night,” And morning brings a calm delight, That turns your doubt to song. [Chorus] Under the stars of promise, burning through the night, I heard the hush of heaven say, “Everything’s all right.” Lay down your fears, let the embers glow, Peace will rise where the rivers flow. Under the stars of promise, we go. [Outro] Yeah, we go, By faith and firelight slow, Under the stars of promise, we go.
