Radiance by The Eagle and Child Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Wide awake
So much less afraid of losing
Your embrace
I am made
Perfect in the wake
Of Your restoring waves
[Verse 2]
I’m secure
Loosening my grip on every “I’m not sure.”
[Pre-Chorus 1]
You walk beside my doubts and my critiques
And You sometimes say
“You’re right, that isn’t me”
[Verse 3]
I receive
That grace is not dependent
On what I achieve
I can breathe
I’ll go where I am
And set the spirit free
[Pre-Chorus 2]
For years I’ve held this little light of mine
But, there’s a greater purpose for the shine
The everlasting glow is in our hearts
So, we may see the others in the dark
[Chorus 1]
Release your radiance
Push back the night
Make other’s burdens light
[Chorus 2]
Release your radiance
Live, love divine
Breathing, connected, shine
[Bridge]
Love beyond the universe, expanding
Is compassionately mending the divides
So, may I not be selfish when I worship
For who can hoard an everlasting light?
May I be empowered to embody
The God whose love is generosity
So, I could see the victim and the villain
As broken and beloved
Same as me
[Chorus 2]
Release your radiance
Live, love divine
Breathing, connected, shine
[Chorus 3]
Release your radiance
Live, love divine
Breathing, connected
Release your radiance
Live, love divine
Breathing, connected
Release your radiance
Live, love divine
Breathing, connected
Release your radiance
Live, love divine
Breathing, connected
Release your radiance
Live, love divine
Breathing, connected
Wide awake
So much less afraid of losing
Your embrace
I am made
Perfect in the wake
Of Your restoring waves
[Verse 2]
I’m secure
Loosening my grip on every “I’m not sure.”
[Pre-Chorus 1]
You walk beside my doubts and my critiques
And You sometimes say
“You’re right, that isn’t me”
[Verse 3]
I receive
That grace is not dependent
On what I achieve
I can breathe
I’ll go where I am
And set the spirit free
[Pre-Chorus 2]
For years I’ve held this little light of mine
But, there’s a greater purpose for the shine
The everlasting glow is in our hearts
So, we may see the others in the dark
[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]
Release your radiance
Live, love divine

Release your radiance
Live, love divine
Breathing, connected
Release your radiance
Live, love divine
Breathing, connected
Release your radiance
Live, love divine
Breathing, connected
