[00:01.12] Andrew Peterson - In The Night
[00:02.12]
[00:04.64] I am weary with the pain of Jacob's wrestling
[00:09.29] In the darkness with the fear, in the darkness with the fear
[00:13.98] But he met the morning wounded with a blessing
[00:18.15] So in the night, my hope lives on
[00:22.20]
[00:23.31] And when Elisha woke surrounded by the forces
[00:27.87] Of the enemies of God, the enemies of God
[00:32.74] He saw the hills aflame with angels on their horses
[00:36.77] So in the night, my hope lives on
[00:40.86]
[00:41.50] Oh, in the night
[00:43.74] Oh, in the night
[00:46.10] Oh, in the night
[00:48.01] My hope lives on
[00:50.36]
[00:51.17] I see the slave that toils beneath the yoke unyielding
[00:55.81] And I can hear the captive groan, hear the captive groan
[01:00.71] For some hand to stay the whip his foe is wielding
[01:04.75] Still in the night, my hope lives on
[01:09.09]
[01:09.85] I see the armies of the enemy approaching
[01:14.38] And the people driven, trembling, to the shore
[01:19.13] But a doorway through the waters now is opening
[01:23.42] So in the night, my hope lives on
[01:27.40]
[01:28.11] Oh, in the night
[01:30.36] Oh, in the night
[01:32.62] Oh, in the night
[01:34.45] My hope lives on
[01:37.18]
[01:46.93] Like the son who thought he'd gone beyond forgiveness
[01:51.71] Too ashamed to lift his head--but if he could lift his head
[01:56.52] He would see his father running from a distance
[02:00.93] In the night, my hope lives on
[02:04.91]
[02:05.75] And I can see the crowd of men retreating
[02:10.45] As he stands between the woman and their stones
[02:14.86] And if mercy in his holy heart is beating
[02:19.35] Then in the night, my hope lives on
[02:23.34]
[02:42.99] Well, I remember how they scorned the son of Mary
[02:47.59] He was gentle as a lamb, gentle as a lamb
[02:52.41] He was beaten, He was crucified, and buried
[02:56.65] And in the night, my hope was gone
[03:00.51]
[03:01.64] But the rulers of earth could not control Him
[03:06.14] No, they did not take His life--He laid it down
[03:10.95] All the chains of death could never hope to hold Him
[03:15.29] So in the night, my hope lives on
[03:19.73]
[03:38.71] And I can see the Son of Man descending
[03:43.47] And the sword He swings is brighter than the dawn
[03:48.25] And the gates of Hell will never stand against Him
[03:52.66] So in the night my hope lives on
[03:56.88]
[03:57.50] Oh, in the night
[03:59.52] Oh, in the night
[04:01.64] Oh, in the night
[04:03.64] My hope lives on
[04:05.99]
[04:06.65] Oh, in the night
[04:08.92] Oh, in the night
[04:11.21] Oh, in the night
[04:13.35] My hope lives on
[04:19.22]
