All the Way Over

from Feathers by Ross Wright

/

lyrics

Feels like you're starting me all the way over

Mercies are new every morning
And your love is sure 'neath my feet
You are the author of second chances
And you've written so many second ones for me

There is no end to your goodness
There is no ceiling to your grace
Let my mouth overflow with praises
Til I raise the ceiling off this place

Down for the count, thought I was done
Lights out, then I felt burning in my lungs
Past in the past, eyes to the sun
Just begun, and it feels like...

Oh, the enemy held me captive
Turned them to stone, turned them to stone
But you made a promise, stood in for me
Went out alone, went out alone
In the bonds of my treason on the table you were tied
Left there to die
But the magic runs deeper, winter's gone off to hide
Now you're alive

You're starting me over, you're starting me over
From my head to my toes, from my head to my toes
You're starting me over
To the left, to the right, the voice inside
Saying "this is the way,
this is the way, walk in it"

Heart in pieces, lost on the sea
But a fire's still burning, somewhere in the deep
Eyes open and I start to breathe
Feel the pulse so start the beat
Was lost and alone as a sheep could be
But you went out for the one and the one was me
And my redemption it came like a spring
Let me jump from the bricks, let me taste and see
Dance and sing, take a chance and pray
It's been a long time, let me seize the day
Cause the sun is up higher than a man can aim
And this gift is too great for any man to claim
And a love too wondrous for me to say
So you might as well turn me up all the way
With every next step, every valley deep
Every silver lining and every gold street
Every door open for my wayward feet
And every heart broken into little pieces
you are the author and this I know
Time to drop the pen cause you're in control
You're starting me over, it's new years eve
And my heart gonna praise you with every last beat
