Day One
Lantern dedicated to my mother.
Sheryl Collins Roberson

Verse
I was like ember
Fading away
You kept your eyes on your sparrow
You was my compass guiding me through
That’s why I always remember

Chorus
In the shadows
You were my lantern
When I couldn’t see
You were the horizon
That kept me through the dark
You remember my name
Lord you were my burning flame
You were my lantern

Verse
Through my dying whisper
You took the rust
You polish me up
Jesus you been my stone
My rock for ages
I heard you when you called  my name
It echo in my heart for days

Chorus
In the shadows
You were my lantern
When I couldn’t see
You were the horizon
That kept me through the dark
You remember my name
Lord you were my burning flame
You were my lantern



Bridge
You carry me in your velvet arms
The new me glister
Now I know I have a place with you forever

Chorus
In the shadows
You were my lantern
When I couldn’t see
You were the horizon
That kept me through the dark
You remember my name
Lord you were my burning flame
You were my lantern
