Second Echo

Lyrics

Brighter Day


Words & Music: Casey Stickley


Verse 1:
In the night, when the moon is full
The raging seas, and the tides will roll
But you nurse this dying hope
When there's no one else around.


Chorus:
That autumn leads to winter's cold
To lift the weight of summer's load
Maybe all the clouds were made
To save us from a brighter day.


Verse 2:
Every life that's been bought and sold
It hardly seems fair at all
That this child you long to hold
Is lost, or never found

Verse 3:
Then the light of the morning comes
And shadows race to hide the sun.
But this hope still lingers on
When the sun is going down.


Chorus 2:
That summer springs and life unfolds
To quell the sting of winter's hold
Think if all the clouds give way
To save us from a stormy day.

Chorus 3:
As autumn leaves bring winter's cold
So summers heat won't take its toll
Does the sky turn dark and gray
To save us from a sunny day


Chorus 4:
As summer's days will never come
Until the work of winter's done
So the storms of life remain
To save us from a brighter day.
