Where The Light Is Lyrics by Anthem Lights

See the streetlight on the corner

And watch the headlight as it's coming down the road

Darkness doesn't stand a chance

See the candle burn in the window

And feel the flame’s heat as it's drowning out the cold

Darkness doesn't stand a chance

Even when you're close to midnight

Even when the walls are closing in

There'll always be a star that's shining

And the night will never win

Where the light is

Maybe your spark is just beginning

And maybe it burns from a lifetime long ago

Darkness doesn't stand a chance

Even when you're close to midnight

Even when the walls are closing in

There'll always be a star that's shining

And the night will never win

Where the light is

Where the light is (where the light is)

Darkness can't be found

Where the Lord is (where the Lord is)

Darkness must be bound

So look in my eyes in the morning

And see the hope there and the soul that still remains

Darkness never stood a chance

Darkness never stood a chance

Anthem Lights - Freedom Into Slavery Lyrics

Anthem Lights Anthem Lights Album 2011

Freedom Into Slavery Lyrics by Anthem Lights

Sometimes I wonder

Sometimes I feel

If I didn’t know that You would forgive me

If it wasn’t so real

Maybe I would act different

Maybe I would be blameless

With forgive and forget left out

Would I still think all this wrong was ok

Why do I push You away

When I know You can’t be gone

Why do I fade black and white to grey

When the lines are clearly drawn

It seems I found a way, I found a way

To turn freedom into slavery

I found away, I found away

To turn freedom into slavery

Still it’s making me wonder

See, I believe that I’m free

But somehow knowing I can do anything

Has put chains on me

Right here beside You

I got all that I need

But still I choose to run away

Just because I’m free

Why do I push You away

When I know You can’t be gone

Why do I fade black and white to grey

When the lines are clearly drawn

So why do I run just ‘cause I can

When I don’t even got chains on my hands

See, the problem lies in my own pride

Lord, I need Your help, ‘cause by myself

Anthem Lights - Lighthouse Lyrics

Anthem Lights Anthem Lights Album 2011

Lighthouse Lyrics by Anthem Lights

Like ships bound for shipwreck

Most people just simply drift along

And miss their destination without knowing anything is wrong

No direction and without a care

Feels so good and then you’re lost out there

Don’t you remember how it felt ‘til someone showed you the way

It’s up to you, it’s up to me

To be the lighthouse

They should know they’re not alone

So shine so they can see the lighthouse

And find their way back home

Tragically we’ve forgotten

The reason we’re even here at all

Worst still, we remember it’s just that we feel so comfortable

Do we notice, do we even care

All the people that are lost out there

Don’t you remember how it felt ‘til someone showed you the way

So climb to the highest point

Scream in your loudest voice

There’s a lifeline waiting for you

Strike up the brightest fire

Fan the flames and let it burn

Just let it burn, the world is waiting

It’s up to you, it’s up to me

They should know they’re not alone

So shine so they can see the lighthouse

And find their way

Anthem Lights - Lifeline Lyrics

Lifeline Lyrics by Anthem Lights

The water was getting higher and higher

My arms kept getting more and more tired

And the harder I would try, the further I would dive down

So I gave up and I finally let go

Stop trying to save myself and be my own hero

And when I opened my eyes, that’s when I realized

You were there the whole time

I’ve got a lifeline

Waiting for me, ready to save

Lifeline

This is gonna be my escape

Lifeline

Never giving up on me

You are my lifeline

I thought that I was too far gone to be rescued

But it seems I underestimated You

It’s nothing to You, it’s too much for me

It’s over my head, but it’s under Your feet

Lifeline

I thought it was over

I thought I was through

Then I saw you and I knew

(This is gonna be my escape)

Lifeline

I thought it was over

I thought I was through

Then I saw You and I knew

(This is gonna be my escape)

Outta My Mind Lyrics by Anthem Lights

Feelin’ like I got a front row seat to watch everybody be happy

Can't even paint a smile on my face, it’s so hard to not complain

Gotta try not to say

O God, what about me

‘Cause I know that's not the way that I'm supposed to be

Get me outta my mind and into Your heart

It’s not about me, it’s not about me

So I’m gonna start playin’ my part in Your design

Now is the time

Get me outta my mind

Outta my mind

There's a bigger picture on display and it's starting to come in focus

Causing me to see to see the ones in need outside my little world

Gotta try, just to say

O God, what can I do

Doesn't matter what it takes, I wanna lead them all to You

If anybody asks me what have I been up to

This is what I'm gonna say

I've been spending my time, outta my mind

And I'm really lovin’ livin’ this way

Anthem Lights - Stranger Lyrics

Stranger Lyrics by Anthem Lights

Somewhere between where I started and right now

You caught my eye

Now all I can see

Is the distance that remains between you and I

In a land of settling

I can't seem to settle in

I am a stranger in this world, just passing through

Waiting on the Son to come down

Waiting on the Son to come down

I know that I will be on my way real soon

Waiting on the Son to come down

I won't be home 'til I'm with You

I don't belong

I speak the language but still I can't understand

What's going on

So I'm running to you just as fast as I can

Don't want to settle in

This place is not my home

Gonna keep my eyes

Looking to the sky for You

The Son is on His way

And I wanna be ready

And I won’t forget

I’m not home ‘til I’m with You

The Son is on His way

Anthem Lights - Can’t Get Over You Lyrics

Can’t Get Over You Lyrics by Anthem Lights

I love the way You love like no other

It's got nothing to do

With anything that I do

Time and time again, You forgive me

So this time I choose

To stay here with You

Hold me, pull me just a little bit closer

I don’t wanna lose this moment

Your love has covered me

And now I can’t get over You

I can’t get over You

I can’t get over You

I just can’t get over You

Here in the arms of my Father

Only grace can be found

So I lay my fears down

Nothing is the same anymore

You’ve changed me from the inside out

Now my heart is beating and it’s singing, won’t You

I can’t get over the way

Your love stays the same, oh Lord

I can’t get over the way

Your love stays the same, oh Lord

Even through the good and the bad times

You stay the same

So my song will remain

I can’t get over You

I can’t get over You

There’s nothing I can do

I just can’t get over You

I can’t get over You

Circles Lyrics by Anthem Lights

Ready, set, go

This is take 37, let it roll

I'm gonna get it right this time

Gonna fight this time

This time I'm for real

Look at me go

I'm off flying straight as an arrow

But then I feel the wind blowing

Gravity sets in

And I don't know how to deal

I always start so strong

Before you even know it, I'm right back at the start

Doing what I hate and breaking my own heart

I'm going back and forth and then forth and then back and then

Round in circles

I was never meant to travel on my own

So no matter what I try if I'm trying alone

I'm going back and forth and then forth and then back and then

Round in circles

Here’s what I know

Direction goes out the window

The second that I hear Your word

I forget what I heard

And go on just the same

But the beautiful part

It doesn’t have to be this hard

I’m just deceiving myself

I know I need Your help

Something’s gotta change

I know I need a change because

No more insanity, I’m letting go of me

All this independence has made me dizzy

Now I can’t see where I’m suppose to be

I had my turn and now my lesson’s learned

I touched the fire and I got burned

I need Your healing touch, I’ve had enough

I’m tired of saying

I Wanna Know You Like That Lyrics by Anthem Lights

Just today

I heard a story of a pastor far away

Who watched his church walls fall with the rain

With tears in his eyes, here's what he had to say

Let’s reach the ones that will rebuild this place

I wanna know You like that

To live, to love

With everything I am

To give it all

I wanna know You know that

To become

A man after Your heart

And not look back

I wanna know You like that

Like David did

He lived a life this world cannot forget

He'd fall so hard then get back up again

And face the giant knowing he would win

Because You were with Him

With every breath I breathe

I wanna help others see

And I will never stop ‘til everybody's singing

Anthem Lights - Can't Shut Up Lyrics

Anthem Lights Anthem Lights Album 2011

Can't Shut Up Lyrics by Anthem Lights

I had a heartbeat, I was breathing

And I kept going and going without a reason

I was living, just to be living

Until He really gave me life

This much I know, I am not alone

And I know I’m not the only one who found a way home

It’s not a secret, don’t have to keep it deep inside

Hey, hey, are you there (we’ve been looking for ya)

Hey, hey, are you there (we’ve been searching for ya)

Hey, hey, are you there (if love is your song, pass it on)

This is why we get up and sing (we can’t shut up)

We’ve got everything that we need (we can’t shut up)

Love has come and now we are free

We can’t shut up about it

We can’t shut up about it (we can’t shut up)

We’ve had a problem

But I ain’t calling Houston, you and I can solve it

We gotta break the silence

We’ve been quiet for too long

We gotta wake up, wake up

Hey, hey, are you there (we’ve been looking for ya)

Hey, hey, are you there (we’ve been searching for ya)

Hey, hey, are you there (let the lost and found let it out)

Out of the darkness and into the light

When blind men can see, it’s a beautiful sight

Out of the darkness and into the light

When blind men can see, it’s a beautiful sight
