Sun on the Porch

[Intro]
[Verse]
The rain played a rhythm on the tin
Wondering how the walls closed in
Pink slip sitting on the kitchen wood
I did the very best I could
Empty pockets and a heavy soul
Losing every bit of my control
[Pre-Chorus]
But then I saw the light start to bend
Like the whisper of a faithful friend
I grabbed the book with the tattered spine
Knowing everything would be just fine
[Chorus]
I am never walking on my own
He has claimed me for His very own
Through the struggle and the silent tears
He has washed away my deepest fears
Now the sun is breaking through the gray
It’s a beautiful and holy day
[Post-Chorus]
(Choir) He's right there
(Lead) I know He’s right there
(Choir) Everywhere
(Lead) I feel Him everywhere
[Verse]
My calloused hands began to fold
A story that was never told
The kids are sleeping in the other room
While the garden starts to finally bloom
I lost a job but I found my way
In the middle of a rainy day
[Pre-Chorus]
I felt the organ start to swell
Breaking every heavy, lonely spell
My calloused palms are open wide
With nothing left for me to hide
[Chorus]
I am never walking on my own
He has claimed me for His very own
Through the struggle and the silent tears
He has washed away my deepest fears
Now the sun is breaking through the gray
It’s a beautiful and holy day
[Bridge]
(Choir) Wrap me in the sound
(Lead) Lift my feet off the ground
(Choir) Like a blanket of grace
(Lead) I can see His shining face
(Brass hits)
I’m rising up, I’m standing tall
He wouldn't let His daughter fall
[Hook]
Thank You for the valley
Thank You for the hill
Thank You for the spirit
Standing very still
Thank You for the mercy
Thank You for the bread
Thank You for the glory
Lifting up my head
[Chorus]
I am never walking on my own
He has claimed me for His very own
Through the struggle and the silent tears
He has washed away my deepest fears
Now the sun is breaking through the gray
It’s a beautiful and holy day
[Post-Chorus]
(Choir) He's right there
(Lead) I know He’s right there
(Choir) Everywhere
(Lead) I feel Him everywhere
[Outro]
