Level Ground (Psalm 143) — ElevenMusic A

The enemy came for my soul

Crushed my life into the ground

Buried me where shadows grow

Where no light is ever found My spirit faint,

my heart in pain

Trembling, I couldn't breathe

Every thought another chain Whispering,

"You'll never be

free"

But in the dark I hear a song Of all the things

your hands have done

You've been faithful all along

So I wait for the rising sun

And I lift my hands

Like a thirsty land

In the morning, let me hear your love In the morning,

I will look above Show me the way,

I'm reaching out

Lead me out, lead me out To level ground,

level ground

Hurry, Lord, my strength is gone

Don't you hide your face from me

I was sinking in the pit

You're the only place I flee

And I lift my hands

Like a thirsty land

In the morning, let me hear your love In the morning,

I will look above Show me the way,

I'm reaching out

Lead me out, lead me out To level ground,

level ground

You broke every chain

Silenced every lie

Called me by my name

Brought me back to life

I'm yours, I'm yours You brought me out

In the morning, now I hear your love In the morning,

I can look above You showed the way,

you reached me now You brought me out,

you brought me out To level ground,

level ground

From the dark

to level ground

You brought me

out
