This is very recent song from the digital platform of As One Voice. It is a dance/rap praise and worship song from Gen Bryant that is from 2019. It could be used a recessional in a youth context but the rap section is not very participatory so maybe just do verse, chorus and the “woo-oo”s. Much of the verse is triplets but the chorus is for joining in.
The sheet music can be purchased at As One Voice.
Making a backing for this on Band in a Box was asking for trouble – suffice to say there are sixteen bars to rap over if you wish, otherwise just jump up and down a lot.
1 We welcome you into the light of this day.
With each new horizon you show us the way,
You show us the way.
We find understanding, we walk in your truth;
Transform our hearts and lead us to you,
Lead us to you.
Chorus
When the night falls, Spirit guide us; through the darkness, lead the way.
Be our power deep within us; come revive our hearts again.
Woo-oo Woo-oo Come revive our hearts again.
Woo-oo Woo-oo Come revive our hearts again.
2 The Father created, the Son he redeemed.
The Spirit inspires… oh what mystery.
What mystery.
Though we may not know this by reason alone,
We walk in faith: in your love we will know;
By our lives we will show.
Chorus
Bridge
The Spirit is moving inside you and me,
Chaos surrounds us, but still we will sing.
The Spirit is moving are you listening?
Close your eyes: you’ll hear the Paraclete.
Rap break
Do you hear it? Can you feel it?
Light shines bright down in your spirit.
Most people never acknowledge it ’cause they fear it.
Some sacrifice their life to stay near.
A beautiful light. A beautiful struggle. The world is loud. The spirit is subtle.
A beautiful light. A beautiful struggle. The world is loud. The spirit is subtle.
Holy Spirit’s my confidant – guides my path when the nights are long.
When everything around me is feeling wrong,
You give me strength to sing along.
Praise your name until I’m gone. By your side’s where I belong.
You’re our joy in trials and pain.
This revival’s bringing real change.
This revival’s bringing real change.
Last Chorus
When the night falls, Spirit guide us; through the darkness, lead the way.
Be our power deep within us; come revive our hearts again.
When the night falls, Spirit guide us; through the darkness, lead the way.
Be our power deep within us; come revive our hearts again.
Woo-oo Woo-oo Come revive our hearts again.
Woo-oo Woo-oo Come revive our hearts again.
Woo-oo Woo-oo Come revive our hearts again.
Woo-oo Woo-oo Come revive our hearts again.
