Reach Down

Verse 1 (Despair) I’m buried in the shadows, can’t see the sky Every prayer I whispered just passed me by The nights are endless, my heart is numb I scream for mercy, but it don’t come I’ve walked through fire, I’ve drowned in tears Carried my pain for so many years I’m broken, beaten, left on my own Lord, I need You — I can’t make it alone Chorus (Desperate Cry) Reach down, Lord, and lift me from this pain Hold me in Your mercy, break these chains I’m fallin’ faster than I can stand Only Your love can reach my hand Reach down, Lord, don’t let me go I’m callin’ Your name, I need You to know Even in the dark, Your light can save Reach down, Jesus, save my soul today Verse 2 (Rising Hope) I’ve begged for answers that never came Felt the silence, bore the shame But still I whisper, still I fight I cling to You in the endless night I see Your cross through the storm and rain It calls my heart, it eases my pain I lift my hands, I give You all I’m surrendering now, I hear Your call Chorus (Turning Point) Reach down, Lord, and lift me from this pain Hold me in Your mercy, break these chains I’m fallin’ faster than I can stand Only Your love can reach my hand Reach down, Lord, don’t let me go I’m callin’ Your name, I need You to know Even in the dark, Your light can save Reach down, Jesus, save my soul today Bridge (Relief / Salvation) I felt Your hand, it pulled me near Every shadow fades, every fear disappears You lifted me up, You made me whole Your mercy healed my shattered soul I’m alive, I’m free, I see the day Reach down, Lord, You showed the way Chorus (Joyful Release) Reach down, Lord, and lift me from this pain Hold me in Your mercy, break these chains I was fallin’, lost, but now I stand Only Your love could reach my hand Reach down, Lord, I’ll never let go I’m callin’ Your name, Your light I know Even in the dark, Your love saved me Reach down, Jesus, set my soul free Final Chorus (Even More Emotion) Reach down, Lord, and lift me from this pain Hold me in Your mercy, break these chains I was fallin’, lost, but now I stand Only Your love could reach my hand Reach down, Lord, I’ll never let go I’m callin’ Your name, Your light I know Even in the dark, Your love saved me Reach down, Jesus, set my soul free Outro (quiet talking) Jesus, reach down and set me free
