In A Moment
Chris Sligh Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In a moment love can pass you by
And in a moment a heart can come alive
Every moment's getting better
Every moment brings me closer to you

Can I hold you till the morning light
Takes away the dead of night
And sunrise shines on you?

Can love take all these fears away
Till morning comes with brand new day?
It's love that pulls us through in a moment

In a moment love can tear you down
And in a moment a heart can turn around
Every moment's getting better
Every moment brings me closer to you

Can I hold you till the morning light
Takes away the dead of night
And sunrise shines on you?

Can love take all these fears away
Till morning comes with brand new day?
And it's love that pulls us through in a moment

I feel you in my heart, I feel you in my soul
Oh, oh you make me whole in a moment

Can I hold you till the morning light
Takes away the dead of night
And sunrise shines on you?

Can love take all these fears away
Till morning comes with brand new day?




It's love that pulls us through in a moment
In a moment, in a moment
