Verse 1
When the year has been unkind,
and the hearts of the people are broken.
When the winter is long and wild,
and life like the earth becomes frozen.
Chorus 1??
In the darkest night, there?s a light that shines,
There?s a hope that?s burning in the shadows
Like a seam of gold in a shattered world,
There is One who holds it all together
Verse 2
If you?re plagued by anxiety,
If your fear for the future?s unspoken
If you?ve nurtured your dreams from seed,
But the harvest has failed or been stolen
Chorus 2
In the darkest night, He?s the light that shines,
He?s the hope that?s burning in the shadows
Like a seam of gold in a shattered world,
He?s the One who holds it all together
Bridge:
See the light shining
Hope is arising
Every sorrow, traded for joy
Creation is longing
His kingdom is coming
So hold on, hold on
Chorus 3
You?re the risen Christ, You?re the morning light
And the hope that lifts me from the shadows
Like a seam of gold in my shattered world,
You?re the One who holds it all together
