Thank God For Sunday Morning

(album: Running Home - 2023)

Neon lights and stained-glass windows
Old bar stools and back row pews
I ran to one more than the other
But I couldn't outrun You
Trying to fill up all the empty
Trying to numb the pain inside
Thinking You'd never forgive me
For all those Saturday nights

But thank God for Sunday morning
Thank God for 3:16
And the words in red
That say You bled
And gave Your life for me
Thank God for a choir singing
And a voice saying, "Come back home."
Saturday night looked like the end of the story
But thank God for Sunday morning

Now I know that You're no stranger
To the broken hearts like mine
It's what You do, yeah, somehow You
Bring dead things back to life
And it might look like it's as over
As a stone over a grave
But I've seen You move, I'm living proof
You still roll stones away

Thank God for Sunday morning
Thank God for 3:16
And the words in red
That say You bled
And gave Your life for me
Thank God for a choir singing
And a voice saying, "Come back home."
Saturday night looked like the end of the story
But thank God for Sunday morning

Sunlight through the stained-glass window
Feels like freedom on my face
It really is a new beginning
It really is amazing grace

Thank God for Sunday morning
Thank God for 3:16
And the words in red
That say You bled
And gave Your life for me
Thank God for a choir singing
And a voice saying, "Come back home."
Saturday night looked like the end of the story, oh
Saturday night looked like the end of the story, hmm-mm
But thank God for Sunday morning
Thank God for Sunday morning
