about

This song was written for and dedicated to Christina Carlucci on the occasion of her death.

lyrics

Be merciful to us, O Lord, be merciful.
Our refuge is in you; you hold our life.
In the shadow of your wings, we find our shelter
until the time of trial has gone by.
For you will come to save us.
Your love, it will endure.
This darkness will surround us no more.

We will awake the dawn as we declare your praise!
Here we have found our hope in Jesus' holy name.
Exalt yourself, O God, above the heaven's skies,
and over all the earth, the people of this world
will see your glory shine!

You vindicate your cause, our Great Defender,
by sending forth your faithfulness and love.
When we find ourselves oppressed, you are our fortress,
And from your mighty hand, salvation comes!
For on the cross, you saved us,
and rose up from the grave.
The power of darkness ended that day.

So we awaken the dawn as we declare your praise!
Here we have found our hope in Jesus' holy name.
Exalt yourself, O God, above the heaven's skies,
and over all the earth, the people of this world
will see your glory shine!
