Intro:
Mmmm… I’ll send out an army to find you,
in the dark of night I won’t let anyone see you.
I’ll cross every ocean to find you on an island—
I will always rescue you.
Cause iiiiii… cause iiiiiiiii…
I’ll always — rescue you.
Verse 1:
When the sky folds down and streets go hollow,
I walk the quiet miles where you used to follow.
I hold a lantern of soft prayer each time I breathe,
each heartbeat is a compass — I won’t leave.
Pre-Chorus:
Clouds can hide the morning, thunder claim the view,
but every breath I take keeps rising toward you.
I gather pieces of the hope they threw away —
I will not relent, I will not stray.
Chorus:
I’ll cross the oceans to bring you home,
I’ll burn the night so you won’t walk alone.
No tide, no shadow, no sorrow in between —
My hands will find yours; I’ll lift you where you’ve been.
I’ll always —
I’ll always rescue you.
Verse 2:
You were left with quiet echoes, names in dust,
a closed door that wouldn’t open, a world turned to rust.
I come through winter ports and past the lighthouse glow,
because love is covenant — it’s how I choose to go.
Pre-Chorus (lift):
If fear becomes a fortress, windows shut and still,
I’ll stand a watchman in the doorway, keep my will.
Every prayer becomes a rope to pull you through,
every promise is a bridge I build to you.
Chorus (variation):
I’ll cross the oceans to bring you home,
I’ll light the path across each wild unknown.
I will tear the silence down to set you free —
Wherever you are, that’s where I want to be.
I’ll always —
I’ll always rescue you.
Bridge (intimate covenant):
I confess my failings in the hush of night,
I’ve stumbled, I’ve been weary, I’ve run out of light.
Still here is my vow: by stars and by my breath,
I’ll chase every shadow; I’ll fight till shadows turn to light.
This is more than promise — a prayer I keep awake,
a sacred stubborn love that will not break.
Final Chorus (full):
I’ll cross the oceans to bring you home,
I’ll burn the night so you never walk alone.
No tide, no shadow, no sorrow in between —
My hands will find yours; I’ll lift you where you’ve been.
I’ll always —
I’ll always rescue you.
(Choir swell: I’ll always — I’ll always rescue you)
Outro (echo / devotional closing):
Mmmm… I’ll send out an army to find you, in the dark of night,
I won’t let anyone see you; I will always rescue you.
Cause iiiiii… cause iiiiiiiii…
I’ll always — rescue you.
(End on a long, reverent held note: "rescue you")
