Every once in a while on a summer night

The sunset glows and I see the light

And when the stars come out it dawns on me

There is holy ground underneath my feet



Surprised by joy

Awash in love

Just one taste of grace

And I'm overcome

You've got a way

Of breaking through

'Til I'm surprised by joy

I'm amazed by you



Just the other day when I kissed my son

I was blown away by what you've done

'Cause when he smiles at me with his toothless grin

All at once I see your hand on him



Surprised by joy

Awash in love

Just one taste of grace

And I'm overcome

You've got a way

Of breaking through

'Til I'm surprised by joy

I'm amazed by you



And when I least expect it

You surround me

You astound me with your love



Surprised by joy

Awash in love

Just one taste of grace

And I'm overcome

You've got a way

Of breaking through

'Til I'm surprised by joy

I'm amazed by you
