Luminous Sanctuary

{ambient felt

piano arpeggios, soft ethereal pad swells,

warm

sub bass, cinematic spatial depth} There’s a river running quiet

through the shadows of my doubt,

And I hear Your voice like thunder

saying I can pull you out.

When the night is heavy on me,

when my heart forgets to sing,

You remind me I’m forgiven,

You remind me I’m still Yours.

Jesus, You’re the light in the river,

The calm in the storm,

the hope I deliver.

When I fall, You carry me home,

You never leave me alone.

Jesus, You’re the light in the river,

Forever and ever. {surging analog synth bass,

swelling orchestral strings} Every burden,

every failure, You don’t turn Your eyes away,

You just lift me from the water,

teach my trembling heart to stay.

And Your mercy like a sunrise breaks the darkness in my chest,

You’re the promise I can stand on,

You’re the truth that brings me rest.

You walk on waves

I’m drowning in,

You breathe new life

where I have been,

You call my name

again, again—

My Savior and my friend.

{massive drum build, rising white noise filter sweep}

Jesus, You’re the light in the river,

The calm in the storm,

the hope I deliver.

When I fall, You carry me home,

You never leave me alone.

Jesus, You’re the light in the river,

Forever and ever. (forever and ever) {explosive climax,

full band drop} {decaying piano delays,

fading vocal reverberation, slow analog synth filter

closing, ambient
