Moving Forward

Moving Forward - Colony House

I found life and I found laughter

In forgiveness I found rest

On the shoulders of redemption

I found hope when hope was dead

I could lose it in a moment

So I dare not close my eyes

I'll watch fear fall with the sunset

And see hope rise with the tide

And when the pain is true

Sometimes these troubles prove that I'm alive

My eyes are open

My heart is beating

My lungs are full

And my body's breathing

I'm moving forward

I found my freedom

I found the life that gave me reason to live

As this dusty road now settles

And I see what lay before

Every tear that held a broken dream
Is now shattered on the floor

And now bursting forth in splendor

Are the blossoms of second tries

Because dreams that bear the mark of love
Are dreams that never die

Sometimes

Life can feel so unkind

Sorrow won't define me
So just reminds my soul

My soul

My eyes are open
My heart is beating

My lungs are full

And my body's breathing

I'm moving forward
I found my freedom

I know this sorrow

I know the heartache

I know with fear comes a tragic heartbreak

Well I'm moving forward
I found my freedom

I found the life that gave the reason to love
