Lyrics
I rode through the valley where the shadows by
Grief on my saddle, no hope in sight
But the dawn broke, hope and mercy took flight
Now I ride with my Savior
From dark to light
From dark to light
Yeah, uh
Buried in sorrow, pain cut deep
Nights without rest, no soul could sleep
Lost in the storm, thought I'd drown in the rain
Broken and bitter, chained by pain
But a whisper came soft through the smoke and fire
"Son, I got plans that will lift you higher"
In the pit of despair when I thought I was through
His hand reached down and pulled me through
So hurry out of the dark, He's riding with me
Breaking these chains, setting me free
Grief is a storm but His light's gonna spark
God shines a fire that pulls me out the dark, oh
Mm-mm, hmm
Mm-mm, hmm
Mm-mm, hmm
Mm-mm, hmm
Now I see sunrise, gold in the sky
Joy in my heart where the tears ran dry
No more sorrow, no more fight
I walk with the Lord in His holy light
Oh, hope runs wild like a river flow
Grace on my back, everywhere I go
Scars turn to stories, ashes to flame
The outlaw's been saved, I'm a new man's name
Should be out of the dark, He's riding with me
Breaking these chains, setting me free
Grief is a storm but His light's gonna spark
God shines a fire that pulls me out the dark, oh
Yeah, riding in the light, I'm alive, I'm free
God's grace pourin' down, shining over me
Joy like thunder, rolling through the night
I was lost in the dark, now riding the light
I hide from ashes to joy, He turned me around
From silence to praise, I lift up a sound
The valley was deep, but the morning came bright
God broke my chains and He gave me new life
I'm freely out of the dark, now riding the light
Shadows behind, His mercy in sight
Grief had me bound, but His love won the fight
I was lost in the dark, now I live in the light, ay
Mm-mm, hmm
Mm-mm, hmm
Mm-mm, hmm
Mm-mm, hmm
