Lyrics
OUT OF THE DARKNESS
I know what it's like
To walk in your shoes
Mood swings like a wrecking ball
Raging you
I'm telling you brother
I've been there before
Crying out to heaven
So what am I here for?.
CHORUS
Steppin' out of the darkness
And into the light?.in my life
I?m praying for the dawn
I need the sunrise... in my life
I don?t know what you?re feelin?
Is it heaven is it hell
The way your heart is burnin'
There's a yearnin', I can tell
I know what I'm sayin'
I've been there before
I cried out to heaven
I know what I?m here for??
CHORUS
Steppin' out of the darkness
And into the light??in my Life
I?ve been praying for the dawn
Now I see the sunrise... in my life
[Bridge]
Jesus is faithful? Oh He is true
And there?s nothing in this world
He wouldn?t do for you?..
When you?re standing in the darkness
Standing in the cold
It?s nothing to go gain the world
And you loose your soul
I know what I?m saying
I?ve been there before
Just keep your eyes on heaven
And walk ? just walk to the door...
CHORUS
You?re steppin' out of the darkness
And into the light?.in this Life
You?ve been praying for the dawn
Here comes the sunrise?..in your life
