A Sh<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g Shimmer<strong>in</strong>g Light<br />
With a heart/ caught up <strong>in</strong> doubt and worry<br />
I face/ my life/ every morn<strong>in</strong>g<br />
Want<strong>in</strong>g to sh<strong>in</strong>e/ but somehow hold<strong>in</strong>g back<br />
Joy and fear/ swirl with<strong>in</strong> my heart<br />
Still I know/ even one as small as I<br />
Can run/ <strong>in</strong>to some day/ and f<strong>in</strong>d<br />
A sh<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g/ shimmer<strong>in</strong>g/ brilliant light<br />
Glow<strong>in</strong>g from/ a path that never ends<br />
(Chorus)<br />
Instead of/ los<strong>in</strong>g hope or/ fear<strong>in</strong>g what’s ahead<br />
Let’s keep on/ mov<strong>in</strong>g forward/ with our heads held high<br />
For we are all/ liv<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> a world<br />
That/ embraces you and me/ with its love<br />
Supported by/ the prayers of those who/ care for us<br />
We’re never/ alone <strong>in</strong> our lives<br />
When I’m down/ and ready to surrender<br />
When times are hard/ and it seems so dark<br />
Just know<strong>in</strong>g each day/ that I’m never on my own<br />
Gives me strength/ and courage to try harder<br />
Hold<strong>in</strong>g hands/ with my friends stand<strong>in</strong>g by my side<br />
Sw<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g arms/ together we will walk<br />
To the sh<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g/ shimmer<strong>in</strong>g/ brilliant light<br />
Glow<strong>in</strong>g from/ a path that never ends<br />
(Chorus X2)<br />
