[Verse 1]
I am not who I once was, defined by all the things I've done
Afraid my shame would be exposed, afraid of really being known
But then You gave my heart a home
[Chorus]
So I walked out of the darkness and into the light
From fear of shame into the hope of life
Mercy called my name and made a way to fly
Out of the darkness and into the light
[Verse 2]
Years of keeping secrets safe, wondering if I could change
'Cause when you're hiding all alone, your heart can turn into a stone
That's not the way I want to go
[Chorus]
So I walked out of the darkness and into the light
From fear of shame into the hope of life
Mercy called my name and made a way to fly
Out of the darkness and into the light
[Bridge]
There's no place I'd rather be
Your light is marvelous, Your light is marvelous
You have come to set us free
You are marvelous, Your light is marvelous to me
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la
[Chorus]
So I walked out of the darkness and into the light
From fear of shame into the hope of life
Mercy called my name and made a way to fly
Out of the darkness and into the light
[Outro]
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la
