Lyrics
BEACON OF HOPE
VERSE ONE: (Richard)
With a burning desire, our spirits aspire, to a love so divine, you can't help but admire.
In trials and tribulations, LORD, you never tire; Your grace and mercy, our souls do require.
O beacon of hope, You set our souls on fire. Through the storms of life, You are our spire.
CHORUS:
Guide us through the darkness, LORD; You’re our light. We lift Your name higher.
You’re our eternal fire; in Your love, we find our truest desire.
Come and inspire us, LORD; spark our souls with Your heavenly choir.
With every step of the way, Your light, LORD, is our guide.
VERSE TWO: (John)
Throughout the ages, Your word has stood true,
Where else should I turn? I will put my trust in You.
I will yield to Your way, for Your way is right.
I will turn to You, LORD, and run to the Light.
CHORUS:
Guide us through the darkness, LORD; You’re our light. We lift Your name higher.
You’re our eternal fire; in Your love, we find our truest desire.
Come and inspire us, LORD; spark our souls with Your heavenly choir.
With every step of the way, Your light, LORD, is our guide. (2X)
