The Afterglow Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You've given us a world so splendid

That we cannot thank You enough for

You hear our prayers (You hear our prayers)

Lord we sing You praise

[Verse 2]

Hallelujah! Your word is love

Your blood has made us new; You've mended our scars

The Lamb of God (the Lamb of God)

He has set us free

Jesus came to say

[Refrain]

“Whenever you're lost (O help us see the path)

I'll carry you through the moments of fear

Tearstained faces perk up again

I'll cleanse you from sins”

[Chorus]

We are living the life in the afterglow

Of the greatest sacrifice You bestowed

Picture-perfect landscapes and the bluest skies

And the sun that casts it's light makes our days

[Break]

When it all comes down You shelter us

[Verse 3]

Let our empty eyes see the promise of the Glorious Day

Father hear Your children's call; take us with You in Paradise

O foster us (Lord foster us)

In Your Holy Name

When faith's all that remains

[Refrain]

“I'll lead you back home (O let us know the truth)

I'll give you rest from your troubles and pains

Frightened hearts will never weep again

The day triumph prevails”

[Chorus]

We are living the life in the afterglow

Of the greatest sacrifice You bestowed

Picture-perfect seascapes and the greenest lands

And the moon that shines at night keeps us safe

[Break]

When it all comes down You shelter us

[Bridge]

You are the symphony that everyone should hear

Lord You fill our hearts with love and grace

Without You we can't go the distance nor overcome the rain

‘Cause God You are! You are our strength!

[Chorus]

Living the life in the afterglow

Of the greatest sacrifice You bestowed

Picture-perfect heavens end the overcasts

You draw us dawn, not dusk; give us peace

[Break]

When it all comes down You shelter us
