Enough Light for Today

CUSTOM

[Intro] [bright acoustic guitar riff, close-mic, steady 4/4 pulse] [Verse 1] Coffee cold on the windowsill Morning broke soft and the house stood still I woke up tired of being strong With a half-made prayer and the answers gone There’s only so much a heart can fake Before truth shows up in the hands that shake Sun came through the cottonwood leaves Like heaven knew how close to be [Pre-Chorus] I didn’t get answers, I didn’t get healed Just enough of You to know You’re real Maybe faith ain’t a victory song Maybe it’s Your hand in mine when the night runs long [Chorus] Give me enough light for today Not the whole road, just the next right way When my tired hands let go Grace walks in and mercy flows I don’t need tomorrow clear Just enough peace to know You’re near Lord, when fear won’t move away Give me enough light for today [Turnaround] [acoustic guitar riff, second guitar answering softly] [Verse 2] I pulled off where the shoulder bends Hands on the wheel and nothing left There’s a name I carry but I don’t say It catches in my throat when the fields turn gray I didn’t ask Him to make it fair I only asked if He still cared Then light hit dust on the county road And something hard in me let go [Pre-Chorus] Maybe grace ain’t pretty when the road gets long Maybe it’s still breathing when the fight is gone Maybe God don’t take the ache away He stays when I can’t find my own way [Chorus] Give me enough light for today Not the whole road, just the next right way When my tired hands let go Grace walks in and mercy flows I don’t need tomorrow clear Just enough peace to know You’re near Lord, when fear won’t move away Give me enough light for today [Short Instrumental Break] [4 bars, acoustic guitars only, gentle lift, no vocal] [Breakdown] I didn’t get over it I got carried through Some days that was all I had And all I had was You [Final Chorus] Give me enough light for today Not the whole road, just the next right way When my tired hands let go Grace walks in and mercy flows I don’t need tomorrow clear Just enough peace to know You’re near Lord, when fear won’t move away Give me enough light for today [End] [let final chord ring naturally]
