Hold Me in the Light

Morning comes in quietly

Through the window and the trees

I sit my hands around the day

And let it breathe

Your love is in the little things

The coffee and the sky

Steady kind of blessing that I never pass by

So I hold on to the light you gave

A warm, gentle flame through the working days

With every step, I feel it still

Greed for heart and salt still will

And if the road gets long and wide

I'm still alright

When you're by my side

There were nights I couldn't name

The weight I carried home

But your voice was like a doorway

Saying I'm not alone

Now the silver in the mirror

Only tells me what is true

That all I am is richer

From the love I found in you

So I hold on to the light

A warm gentle flame through the working days

With every step, I feel it still

A grateful heart, a softer will

And if the road gets long and wild

I'm still alright with no one by my side

Don't need gold to know I'm blessed

I found a calm in this tenderness

Every scar, every mile, every scarlet sunrise

Leads me back to the peace in your eyes

So I hold on to the light you gave

A warm gentle frame through the working days

With every step, I feel it still

Grateful heart, softer will

And as the road gets long and wide

I'm still alright

When Mark by my side

I'm still alright

When mark by my side
