[Verse] I woke between the smoke and gold With one hand warm and one hand cold A burning crowd was calling me down Silver wings found me before I could drown [Verse] The dark side screamed with hungry eyes The bright side sang through open skies I felt my fear like iron chains But mercy moved through all my veins [Chorus] Halfway to grace, I hang in the air Between the ash and the answered prayer One hand in fire, one hand in light I fight for my soul tonight Halfway to grace, I will not fall Heaven still hears when broken hearts call I leave the flames and face the skies I rise to the light, to the light, to the light [Verse] The demons laughed with sharpened teeth They promised crowns made out of grief The angels reached through dust and flame And called my heart by no false name [Verse] I was not clean, I was not strong I carried years of doing wrong But hope came close with open hands And pulled me out of sinking sands [Chorus] Halfway to grace, I hang in the air Between the ash and the answered prayer One hand in fire, one hand in light I fight for my soul tonight Halfway to grace, I will not fall Heaven still hears when broken hearts call I leave the flames and face the skies I rise to the light, to the light, to the light [Bridge] Let the old world burn below Let the black wind lose its hold I am more than what I chose I am dust where mercy grows [Verse] Now every scar becomes a gate Now every wound can learn to wait The war still roars on every side But peace has found a place inside [Chorus] Halfway to grace, I hang in the air Between the ash and the answered prayer One hand in fire, one hand in light I fight for my soul tonight Halfway to grace, I will not fall Heaven still hears when broken hearts call I leave the flames and face the skies I rise to the light, to the light, to the light [Outro] If I must cross through smoke and pain I know the light will call again No hell can keep what love has claimed I rise from the flame, from the flame, from the flame
