Regions Of Light
Rich Mullins' song 'Regions of Light' paints a vivid picture of a heavenly vision, describing a beautiful place beyond the night where dawn spreads its wings and angels stand in the sun. The lyrics invite listeners to follow Jesus, who calls them to drink the water He turned into wine, symbolizing transformation and new life. Mullins emphasizes that God is near, waiting to pour Himself into those who open their hands, even though we are like clay unable to fully grasp His love. The song expresses hope and assurance that believers will join in this glorious future, as the Lord has made room for them.
Across the border at the edge of the night
To where the dawn spread her silvery wings
And, there I saw such a beautiful sight!
O I wish you could see it, too!
All the music there was so alive!
I drank life from the atmosphere
What I felt, I can't even describe
But, I wish you could feel it, too!
The Lord is calling you to drink that water
That He turned into wine
And, if you follow Him a little farther
Who has seen what you will find!
With the angels standin' in the sun
And all the constellations dance
Beneath the glory that is waiting to come
O I wish you were coming, too!
He is just a prayer away waiting for an open hand
To pour Himself into
We are only lumps of clay unable to understand
What His love could really do!
The Lord is calling you to drink that water
That He turned into wine!
And, if you follow Him a little farther
Who has seen what you will find!
Across the border into regions of light
Where the dawn spread her silvery wings
I know you'll see such a beautiful sight
I have seen it, too!
There's an angel standin' in the sun
And all the constellations dance
Beneath the glory that is ready to come!
O, I know you'll be coming, too!
Because, the Lord has made room for you!
