In the shadows; My spirit weak
Love broke through the darkness and lifted me
And I know you'll never let me go
In the storm in the raging sea
Love conquered the fear and delivered me
And I know you'll never let me go
Oh love in the shadows
Be the light who leads me on
You're love I will follow
Be my guide, You're will be done
Oh Lord
In the arms of the One unseen
Love carried the cross that was meant for me
And I know you'll never let me go
Oh love in the shadows
Be the light who leads me on
You're love I will follow
Be my guide, You're will be done
Oh Lord I surrender, now forever I'll be loved
In the love of the Father, You are faithful You are strong
So hold me now, hold me now, hold me now
Nothing in this life has walked these streets
Love opened my eyes show me what You see
And I know I'll never let You go
