“FATHER OF LIGHTS”
Written by Randy Stonehill
Transcribed by Maury Millican (MillicanM@aol.com)


(Intro)

G
Shining down from the Father of lights 
D
Every good thing in my life
G
Raining down from the Father of lights 
G
They come down from the Father of lights

(Verse 1)
		
C   G/B    D			G		
One bright star burns away my darkness 
C   G/B    D			G	
One true hope gives me strength to stand
 D/F#  Emi	D	Emi		
And my soul has found a resting place
Ami		D
In the hollow of God's hand
Emi		D 
Every river I could not cross
Emi			D
Every dream that the wind has tossed
Emi			D
Sting of failure, the pain of loss
C	       G/B  D
They all just fade away 
G
And the love comes down 
		
(Chorus)

G 
Shining down from the Father of lights 
D
Every good thing in my life
G				D
There's no doubt about it I can see
G 
Raining down from the Father of lights 
D
Through the sacred sacrifice
G   
Now he pours his blessings 
G  D/F# Emi         D
Down on me, down on me
C		    G
They come down from the Father of lights

(Verse 2)

C   G/B    D			G
I have learned to embrace the laughter,
C   G/B    D			G
To see the beauty in the simple things
G  D/F# Emi	   D	   Emi	
And my heart has found the freedom 
Ami		      D
A childlike faith can bring
Emi		      D
Faith in more than I see or feel 
Emi			   D
Faith in something that’s much more real
Emi		      D 
The one thing even death can't steal 
C	 G/B    D
It never fades away
G
And the love comes down 

(Chorus) 

(Bridge) 

F 
Down from the Father 
G
Down from the Father
A				F		
    Down from the Father of lights		

[Music Break] 

D	G	D	G 

Emi	D	Emi	Ami	D
 
(Verse 3)
Emi		D
This pearl beyond all price 
Emi		D
Is worth every sacrifice
Emi				D
Give my soul and not think twice 
C	G/B	D 
It never fades away 
C	G/B	D
It never fades away

(Chorus)
