Every heartbeat reminds me, He is the life When I feel dark, blind – He heals all my strife. Every breath prompts me to know He is love Creator, Savior, the Son, sent by God above. Every thought retells of a light that never dims Though my dreams fade, I still sing hymns. Every silence stirs my heart to listen to His word Even when I’m lonely, His love can still be heard. Every prayer that I pray is filled with awe of Him, the One who always fills my heart to the brim. Every beautiful thing I see echoes His amazing grace While He lives in heaven, I still feel Him in this place. Every mourning tells me that He’s always near to me, Though I don’t see Him, His love’s bigger than the sea. Every death that brings a tear, every doubt that remains, Assures me that He’s taking me through all life’s pains. Every joy that trembles so soft against my thoughts, Reveals a love that tells me He’s connecting all the dots. Every burden that weighs on my soul, wilting my light, Is lifted by the One who came to destroy all my fright. Every song that colors my dreams with His gentle peace, Shows me that I must decrease so He can increase. Every quiet twilight brings me such abundance of love That I know He came to us to bring heaven above… Answering the prayers for a Savior, a Redeemer, a Rescuer, Who is forever the way to change the wrongdoer, Who is forever the answer to silence the darkness of death, Because His Holy Spirit brings grace with every breath. He is the One whose light ignited the world with a hope That never lets a heart linger, unable to cope. He is the One whose blood bought everyone who will believe A second chance, a new beginning, a love that will never leave!
