the light begins its awakening return for which the eyes yearn and praise him the stillness is a heavy cloak until the ancient words are spoke and praise him the strength is gathered in the bone to walk the path we walk alone and praise him the path is marked in silver frost to count the rivers we have crossed and praise him the mountain wind is thin and pure it teaches spirits to endure and praise him the valley stays in shadow deep with secrets that the mountains keep and praise him the distance closes with the light the summit rising into sight step by step the weary feet believers together seeking his retreat and praise him the sanctuary waits in stone where mercy and its truth are known and praise him the doors are wide the race is run the long traverse is finally done and praise him oh deliver us from our wicked way on jesus name and work on the cross we pray the bloods perfect sacrificial art please father give us new hearts / please father give us new hearts / please father give us new hearts and praise him / and praise him / and praise him
