Harbourlight Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your mercy falls and covers us
And we're set free
In grace and mercy flowing
I've been redeemed, all my debt paid for me
Sing it out, sing it loud
Let earth and heaven hear us now
That we might sing this freedom song
Grace is here
And be a light in darkness shine
Tell the world He is alive
And live to say, Our God reigns
And He covers us with grace
O let me be a light
That shines with Your life
That shines with Your grace
Shines with Your face
