[VERSE 1]
A
 There’s a song of resurrection
                               E/G#
Hope that fills the weary soul
F#m                         D              A
  You have made your home inside, I’m not alone
A
 In The shadow of the valley 
                                 E/G#
Your word a lamp when I can’t see
F#m                    D              A/C#
  May I not forget the promise leading me
       D       E
You’re leading me

[CHORUS 1]
              A                  D
You light the way, You light the way
               F#m                   E
With a fire by night, and a cloud by day
              A/C#               D    
You light the way, You light the way
                  F#m                     E
Where You go I’ll go, where You stay I’ll stay

[VERSE 2]
A
 We are pilgrims on a journey
Hungry for what lies beyond
F#m                         D            A   
  Strangers once now made a family, we belong
A
 We are tellers of a story
Of word made flesh and kingdom come
F#m                           D
   Sinners saints and hope of glory
        A/C#     D       E 
Christ alone, oh Christ alone

[CHORUS 2]
              A                  D
You light the way, You light the way
               F#m                   E
With a fire by night, and a cloud by day
              A/C#               D    
You light the way, You light the way
                  F#m                     E
Where You go I’ll go, where You stay I’ll stay

[BRIDGE 1]
                      D                             E
You're lighting up my future, You're lighting up my faith
                      F#m                  A
You're lighting up my wonder with endless grace
                      D                               E
You're lighting up my failures, You're lighting up my fears
                F#m                    E
Everything I've carried over all these years

[CHORUS 3]
N.C.
You light the way, You light the way
With a fire by night, and a cloud by day
              A                  D    
You light the way, You light the way
                  F#m                     E
Where You go I’ll go, where You stay I’ll stay

[CHORUS 4]
              A                  D

With a fire by night, and a cloud by day
              A/C#               D    
You light the way, You light the way
                  F#m                     E
Where You go I’ll go, where You stay I’ll stay

[BRIDGE 2]
                      D                             E
You're lighting up my future, You're lighting up my faith
                      F#m                  A
You're lighting up my wonder with endless grace
                      D                               E
You're lighting up my failures, You're lighting up my fears
                F#m                    E      
Everything I've carried over all these years
                      D                             E

You're lighting up my wonder with endless grace

You're lighting up my failures, You're lighting up my fears
                F#m                    E      
Everything I've carried over all these years
