(Intro)
[G]Shining down from the Father of lights
[D]Every good thing in my life
[G]Raining down from the Father of lights
[G]They come down from the Father of lights
(Verse 1)
[C]One [G/B]bright [D]star burns away my da[G]rkness
[C]One [G/B]true ho[D]pe gives me strength [G]to stand
A[D/F#]nd my [Emi]soul has [D]found a [Emi]resting place
[Ami]In the hollow of[D] God's hand
[Emi]Every river I co[D]uld not cross
[Emi]Every dream that the win[D]d has tossed
[Emi]Sting of failure, the pa[D]in of loss
[C]They all just f[G/B]ade a[D]way
[G]And the love comes down
(Chorus)
[G]Shining down from the Father of lights
[D]Every good thing in my life
[G]There's no doubt about it I can [D]see
[G]Raining down from the Father of lights
[D]Through the sacred sacrifice
[G]Now he pours his blessings
[G]Dow[D/F#]n on [Emi]me, down on [D]me
[C]They come down from [G]the Father of lights
(Verse 2)
[C]I ha[G/B]ve lear[D]ned to embrace the la[G]ughter,
[C]To s[G/B]ee the [D]beauty in the simple [G]things
[G]And[D/F#] my h[Emi]eart has fo[D]und the [Emi]freedom
[Ami]A childlike faith can [D]bring
[Emi]Faith in more than I s[D]ee or feel
[Emi]Faith in something thatR[D]17;s much more real
[Emi]The one thing even dea[D]th can't steal
[C]It never [G/B]fades a[D]way
[G]And the love comes down
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
[F]Down from the Father
[G]Down from the Father
[A] Down from the Father of ligh[F]ts
(Music Break)
[D] [G] [D] [G]
[Emi] [D] [Emi] [Ami] [D]
(Verse 3)
[Emi]This pearl beyon[D]d all price
[Emi]Is worth every s[D]acrifice
[Emi]Give my soul and not think twice[D]
[C]It never[G/B] fades a[D]way
[C]It never[G/B] fades a[D]way
(Chorus)
