“What Light Remains” by LIGHT45
LYRICS

I ate my bread off of my Father’s table
I turned and fled as soon as I was able
I’m almost dead, and now I’m coming back home

Put Your breath upon my flame
Give me measure from Your table
Tried to make it on my own
Each and every time unable

Tell me that I’m not alone
Take me back into my home
Prodigal, so some would say
I need to seek out what light remains

Hey!

When I left thought I was in control
Each and every day with a different love

Drank every meal with a silver cup
All the money ran away and my friends dried up
I was feeling oh, so low

With every step I wanna pull me in
Company I keep with the mud and sin
I was feeling oh so low

What will they think if I go home
And beg ‘em for crumbs from the kitchen floor?

Before I reach the farthest gate
I see my Father’s face
I see the face of Grace

Hey!

Restored now to the table, oh! (Forgive me brother now!)
Almost like I was never gone (Somebody tell me how?)
What kind of love have I fallen upon
That’s swallowed me whole?

Put Your breath upon my flame
Give me measure from Your table
Tried to make it on my own
Each and every time unable

Tell me that I’m not alone
Take me back into my home
I will seek and call Your name
Each and every time I’m able

Put Your breath upon my flame
Give me measure from Your table
Tried to make it on my own
Each and every time unable

Put Your breath upon my flame
Put Your breath upon my flame
Prodigal, so some would say
I need to seek out what light remains

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
