I was half way up the mountain when the rocks I held gave way
Came tumbling like an avalanche, to the bottom wher I lay
Now with the taste of blood and twist of bone
My healing could begin

(Chorus)

‘Cause the wound is where the light, The wound is where the light
The wound is where the light gets in

(Verse 2)

I’ve stood here like a hostage with a knife held to my vain
Held captive to the poison that I took to numb the pain
‘Cause everybody wishes they were born with thicker skin

(Bridge)

It’s trickey how the heart works

When the break ups and the big jecks
Make never want to hurt that way again
Maybe I’m naive but in every scare I see
A place where love is trying to break in
‘Cause the wound is where the light

(Verse 3)
You can recognise a saint by the scares they don’t disguise
You can pick out a real sinner by the kindness in their eyes
So if you’re stumbling in the dark and bleeding at the (shin?)

Remember

You can’t add a single day by worrying
You’ll worry your life away
Oh don’t worry your life away
You can’t change a single thing by freaking out
It’s just gonna close you in
Oh don’t let the trouble win

[Pre-Chorus 1 (notes only)]

You may feel alone
But you’re not on your own

La, lala, la la lala
If He can hold the world He can hold this moment
La, lala, la la lala
Not a field nor flower escapes His notice
Oh even the sparrow
Knows He holds tomorrow

[Verse 2]

Lean in and it’s hard to miss
Everything can change
When you make it His
Oh He wants to carry it
Carefree in the care of God
When you let it go
You’ll find that He’s enough
Oh you never leave His love

[Pre-chorus 2 (notes only)]

You don’t walk alone

La, lala, la la lala
If He can hold the world He can hold this moment
La, lala, la la lala
Not a field nor flower escapes His notice
Oh even the sparrow
Knows He holds tomorrow

There’s not a single star that’s out of place
There’s nothing broken He can’t remake
If you long for hope when you’re afraid
Oh look at the sparrow

Em C G D (build)
Look at the sparrow

La, lala, la la lala
If He can hold the world He can hold this moment
La, lala, la la lala
Not a field nor flower escapes His notice
Oh even the sparrow
Knows He holds tomorrow
