What secrets sleep in the heart of a man,

Shimmer in the eyes of longing,
G Asus2
I hear it say,

Promise of you,
Asus2
It sleeps in the air,
Em Em/B Em/G G
The air that I breathe,
Dsus2
And I know that it's true,
Asus2 Asus4/E
Don't have to convince myself to believe,
What secrets sleep in the heart of the night,
Dreams of salvation,
Slipping out of sight,
In the shimmering moments of twilight,
Closing up the shine,
Whisper on the wind of a rescue,
Savior in time,
