Lyrics

Verse 1

The night feels long and heavy now Shadows press and questions cloud I've prayed for light but heaven's still And silence rests upon the hill

Pre-Chorus

Tears have carved these quiet streams Between what was and what will be Yet somewhere past what I can see The dawn is waking patiently

Chorus

Though darkness lingers, it won't remain The sun still rises after rain Until the morning breaks the sky I'll trust the one who holds my life When faith feels thin and hope feels worn I'll cling to what the night has sworn That sorrow only stays so long And joy will wake with heaven's song The grave will lose, the stone will move Love will prove what love can do So I will wait, though tears are falling Because the light is coming in the morning

Verse 2

I've watched the dream grow cold and still Felt promises that seemed to spill Like oil poured out on broken ground No echo to the bleeding sound

Pre-Chorus

But buried seeds don't stay that way And winter never wins the day For even in the frozen field A hidden resurrection yields

Chorus

Though darkness lingers, it won't remain The sun still rises after rain Until the morning breaks the sky I'll trust the one who holds my life When faith feels thin and hope feels worn I'll cling to what the night has sworn That sorrow only stays so long And joy will wake with heaven's song The grave will lose, the stone will move Love will prove what love can do So I will wait, though tears are falling Because the light is coming in the morning

Bridge

Freedom's silent in the grave Free nights hold seem far away Heaven never lost its plan Death was never in command The darkest hour always yields To mercy breaking through the field Until the morning floods the earth And broken things are given birth When tears are wiped and fear undone And night surrenders to the sun I'll walk this road with lifted eyes For dawn is written in the sky The stone will roll, the door swing wide And I will stand on heaven's side Until that light is fully shown I'll trust him through the night alone

Outro

Until the morning Until the morning Night is long, till the morning Night is long My morning, it is long

Behind the song

This song was born from the quiet struggle of waiting. It leans into the truth that even in our darkest moments, God is at work. The lyrics echo the ancient wisdom that sorrow has its limit, and joy will surely return. It reminds us of resurrection hope—that buried seeds don't stay buried, and winter doesn't win. It speaks to the ultimate victory promised in scripture, where death is defeated, and love proves its power. This song encourages us to trust the One who holds our lives, even when the path is unclear, knowing that light is coming.
