Newport Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Near and far, You called out to us
I heard the sound of saving grace
And now I'm burning with Your love
Your name, lifting higher
Your light, ever brighter
Your love, like a thunder
There's nothing like living in Your light
In the glow of Your paradise
Just to be here by Your side
As we echo, echo, echo Your heartbeat
As we echo, echo, echo Your heartbeat
In the glow of Your embrace
Singing out, my soul resonates
The sound of hope that's in Your name
And now I'm burning with Your love

I only found this when my heart sparked and said "live in you light". I knew I had to see something so faithful and hear something so soulful for my mind and body to understand the language of love and courage and I siad back "my light is never brighter and my love flying higher". stay with ones you have once loved and still will love til you depart in the thought of being able to leave.
