I wandered through the darkness, wasting away
My soul was cold and hopeless, dead in the grave
Then like a river of life in a dry land
Like a flicker of sight to a blind man
I saw the glorious light as it broke in
God of mercy and might
Oh, You brought me back to life
You're the Lord of light shining in the dark
You're the source of life beating in my heart
You're the living hope, You're the risen Christ
You restored my soul
Oh, You brought me back to life
The brilliance of Your glory awakens my soul
You give me grace and mercy, I give You control
And like a river of life in a dry land
Like a flicker of sight to a blind man
I saw the glorious light as it broke in
God of mercy and might
Oh, You brought me back to life
You're the Lord of light shining in the dark
You're the source of life beating in my heart
You're the living hope, You're the risen Christ
You restored my soul
Oh, You brought me back to life
You brought me back to life
You are the Resurrector, You conquered the grave
You pulled me from the water, free from my chains
And risen to live
Like a river of life in a dry land
Like a flicker of sight to a blind man
I saw the glorious light as it broke in
God of mercy and might
Oh, You brought me back to life
You're the Lord of light shining in the dark
You're the source of life beating in my heart
You're the living hope, You're the risen Christ
You restored my soul
Oh, You brought me back to life
You brought me back to life
Oh, You brought me back to life
You brought me back to life
