In the way the shadows hide
When the sun begins to rise
And in the way the world comes alive
At the first hint of spring
The frozen rivers run
The death of winter comes undone
Whispers of Kingdom come
While the bluebird sings
Everything
Everything that I thought I knew
Everything
Everything sad is coming untrue
From the war torn city streets
To the trash the slum dogs eat
It seems so hard to believe
And meaningless to pray
But in Rwanda's killing fields
Forgiveness blooms and heals
And the power of love reveals
The Kingdom come today as
Life is coming alive
Death is destined to die
And love
When we learn to live again
And let forgiveness win
There's no wound that love won't mend
And finally redeem
The Son of God woke in the ground
The angel laid the soldiers down
To bring the King his crown
Oh, I believe
Life is coming alive
Death is destined to die
And love
Jason Gray
