Amy Grant – 1974 lyrics
We were young
None of us knew quite what to say
But the feeling moved
Among us in silence anyway
Slowly we had made
Quite a change
Somewhere we had crossed a big line
Down upon our knees
We had tasted holy wine
And no one could sway us
In a life time
[Chorus:]
Purer than the sky
Behind the rain
Falling down all around us
Calling out from a boundless love
Love had lit a fire
We were the flame
Burning into the darkness
Shining out from inside us
Not a word
No one had to say we were changed
Nothing else we lived through
Would ever be the same
Knowing the truth
We had gained
[Chorus]
Stay with me
Make it ever new
So time will not undo
As the years go by
How I need to see
That's still me
Falling down all around us
Calling out from a boundless love
Burning into the darkness
Shining out from inside us
[Chorus]
