The Light That Never Fails
[Verse 1]
When the cold bites your bones and gets in your heart
It can make you feel hopeless
And fear will come to steal your sun and make it dark
But don't believe you're lonely

[Pre-Chorus]
We've all had that moment when our shoulders sink
And we sit back and think
We could just run

[Chorus]
But we're not born to chase the faded light
We're not born to fall and lose the fight
Never letting go, oh, no
I'm asking you to lift me, lift me higher than I ever been
Hold your breath and say you're gonna come with me
We were born to follow
The light that never fails

[Verse 2]
You're scared to fight, you're scared to climb
Afraid to die
But I can be your courage
And help you see that you've already won this
[Pre-Chorus]
We all have that moment when our head hands low
We question if we should go
Or turn back and run

[Chorus]
But we're not born to chase the faded light
We're not born to fall and lose the fight
Never letting go, oh, no
I'm asking you to lift me, lift me higher than I ever been
Hold your breath and say you're gonna come with me
We were born to follow
The light that never fails

[Bridge]
Come along, we're setting sail
Never looking back again

[Chorus]
We're not born to chase the faded light
We're not born to fall and lose the fight
Never letting go, oh, no, oh
I'm asking you to lift me, lift me higher than I ever been (Lift me higher)
Hold your breath and say you're gonna come with me (Come with me)
We were born to follow (Born to follow)
The light that never fails
The light that never fails (It never fails)
We were born to follow
The light that never, ooh
Light that never, ooh
The light that never fails
