(Intro)
Shining down from the Father of lights
Every good thing in my life
Raining down from the Father of lights
They come down from the Father of lights
(Verse 1)
One [G/B]bright star burns away my darkness
One [G/B]true hope gives me strength to stand
A[D/F#]nd my soul has found a resting place
In the hollow of God’s hand
Every river I could not cross
Every dream that the wind has tossed
Sting of failure, the pain of loss
They all just f[G/B]ade away
And the love comes down
(Chorus)
Shining down from the Father of lights
Every good thing in my life
There’s no doubt about it I can see
Raining down from the Father of lights
Through the sacred sacrifice
Now he pours his blessings
Dow[D/F#]n on me, down on me
They come down from the Father of lights
(Verse 2)
I ha[G/B]ve learned to embrace the laughter,
To s[G/B]ee the beauty in the simple things
And[D/F#] my heart has found the freedom
A childlike faith can bring
Faith in more than I see or feel
Faith in something thatR17;s much more real
The one thing even death can’t steal
It never [G/B]fades away
And the love comes down
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Down from the Father
Down from the Father
Down from the Father of lights
(Music Break)
(Verse 3)
This pearl beyond all price
Is worth every sacrifice
Give my soul and not think twice
It never[G/B] fades away
It never[G/B] fades away
(Chorus)
