SUNRISE
Strange Occurence Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sunrise upon my eyes
Another day to start again
The pain of my past fades away
As the breeze of Your love blows
Upon the face that no one knows
Your sacred hands they hold my broken heart

I am just a cup of water
That You can turn to wine
I am just a crippled beggar
That's left his bed behind

Though I struggle all the time
Pressing onward to the line
You uphold me when I fall aside
As I near that distant goal




I will never run alone
As long as You are by my side
