lyrics

I can’t figure out why this flame goes out
and I’m left in the dark of doubt again.
Longing for a verse to lift from ‘neath this curse
of the silence my soul’s been writhing in.

How I long for words to make known His works
And recount the wonders of His love
But the words won’t come, so I’m left with none
save this prayer for His gates to open up

Chorus:
But as the Nightingale fills the mist with song,
silver moon pierces night with borrowed rays.
Spark my soul this night, bring forth purest light
and return to your God a song of praise.


How can you not sing when all creation rings
with the chorus of a billion fiery stars?
And every tree and ant bids us join the chant
so awake and lend your voice to them my heart

Chorus:
But as the Nightingale fills the mist with song,
silver moon pierces night with borrowed rays.
Spark my soul this night, bring forth purest light
and return to your God a song of praise.

How can you forget how all your sins and debts
were atoned on that tragic wooden cross
Were it not for Him who took away my sin
I fear, my soul, you would be lost

Chorus:
But as the Nightingale fills the mist with song,
silver moon pierces night with borrowed rays.
Spark my soul this night, bring forth purest light
and return to your God a song of praise.
