John Mark McMillan
Silver Shore
[Verse 1]
Billowing hills
Shoulders of steel
Hide behind faces of glass

[Verse 2]
The midnight tallies
The street light valleys
Recollections of our past
These thoughts of home

[Chorus]
And tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep
Tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep

[Verse 3]
We’re ghosts inside of our bodies
Naked inside of our clothes
We’re all terrified of the writhing ocean tide
But our pockets are all full of hope
These thoughts of home
[Chorus]
And tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep
Tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep

[Bridge 1]
We were born on heaven’s silver shores
I know it in my heart there’s more to be afforded

[Bridge 2]
Did I hear you in the driving rain
I swear somebody was calling my name again

[Bridge 1]
We were born on heaven’s silver shores
I know it in my heart there’s more to be afforded

[Outro]
We were made for the other side of the lake
It’s more than we can take
The fever’s gonna break for us
