Verse 1

In deepest darkness
Lies in wait
A captor seething
Filled with hate
I know not when
His voice will sing
The lies that draw me
From my King

Chorus

I have not strength
To turn and flee
But Christ the Son
Alive in me
He fills me with
His peace and rest
And trades my shame
For righteousness

Verse 2

Though times I listen
To the words
Of one deceiving there is heard
A gentle call a calming plea
Oh please my child
Come back to me

Chorus 2

And in that moment
I find there
Neither reproach nor deep despair
But healing hands to lift my head
My Father's loving arms instead

Bridge

He sings the song
Of grace to me
The blood of Christ
Which sets me free
I am forgiven and I know
His love can never let me go

Refrain

His Spirit keeps me and proclaims
There is no end to Jesus' reign
Until He comes that glorious day
In Him I live and ever stay
