Album: The Light of Things Hoped For
did you hear the news today
i'm not coming home,
no
and i wished it all away
i felt so alone
and the darkness crept it's way
like stars we know will die too soon
there is never any sunrise here in the shadows of eclipsing moons
crawling on a tightrope
the bravest thing i have is hope
daylight, save me
daylight, save me
tonight, tonight
halogen, the lights will flicker
incadescent burning lies
and the silence stands for nothing
desperate i search the skies aching for a spark
trembling in pitchest dark
Mission Control: USS Gloria, this is mission control, do you copy?
we have lost contact with the USS Gloria
USS Gloria: Mission Control, this is the USS Gloria, do you read me?
Mayday, we have lost primary guidance functions
News Reporter: The crew is now out of radio contact
presently there is no way for us to know whether they
are alive or dead
our hopes and prayers go out with you all
Mission Control: USS Gloria, this is mission control, do you copy?
USS Gloria: Houston this is the USS Gloria
good to hear your voice
we are coming out of the eclipse now
i see the sunlight it's beautiful
the sunlight is beautiful
Jesus Christ, Light of the World
You never did forget me
and when i bled in darkness, You held
me
still held me
when desparate nights i cursed You
You loved me, still loved me
Jesus Christ, You dry the tears
You break my heart of stone
Your words are life
cut marrow through
the darkness, to the bone
a heart of flesh You gave me
only You can save me
Savior
Daylight
I am coming home
