By Matthew Haflett
I’ve seen darkness driven away
Choked out by a glorious light
I’ve heard a whisper in the dark
Telling me there’s no more need to fight
I’ve seen chains of burden released
Watched them be pulled away and broken
I melted at the words of my Savior
As the first of many I love you’s was spoken
It was the last day I knew loneliness
Ill never feel its loss and emptiness again
That space is now filled with the love of my Father
With the Spirit of God, my Jesus, my friend
I felt tears of pain turn to those of joy
I was free now that I had been found
A broken sinner had been redeemed
That night that his knees hit holy ground
I heard the angels singing
A prodigal son had come home
I felt royal blood pump through my veins
As Jesus began to heal a heart of stone
I was alone in a dark room
But God’s glory shone like the sun at mid day
The night that a new creation was born
And the old had passed away
He’s done miracle upon miracle
From healing the blind to calming the sea
But the one that stands out the most
Is the day that He rescued me
Yes, I’ve read about them all
I’ve heard of how
He made the waters part
But nothing will ever come close
To the day that
Christ entered my heart
