Someday, I’ll Shine

"Someday, I'll Shine"

(by Mari Rabadan)

Verse 1:

I once believed in fairy tales

And love that never fades

But hearts can break, and dreams can fall

Like stars that slip away

I cried through nights that had no end

I lost my way, forgot my name

But something deep inside of me

Refused to fade in shame

Pre-Chorus:

I let go of what I couldn't hold

The pain, the fear, the need to know

And in that silence, something grew—

A quiet voice, a holy truth

Chorus:

Someday, I will wake up

Shining in the light of grace

The tears I've cried will water

The flowers in a better place

All the things I couldn't see

Will unfold in front of me

True love is somewhere, it’s on its way

And God is shaping every day

You’ll be holding my hand

And I will understand

Verse 2:

I used to pray with heavy doubt

Afraid to trust the plan

But now I see the hands of love

In every grain of sand

The road was long, the nights were cold

But I was never truly alone

Each broken piece became a light

Guiding me back home

Pre-Chorus:

I’ve learned to rise, I’ve learned to fall

But now I rise and trust it all

The letting go, the breaking through

Led me right here—to me and You

Chorus:

Someday, I will wake up

Shining in the light of grace

The tears I've cried will water

The flowers in a better place

All the things I couldn't see

Will unfold in front of me

True love is somewhere, it’s on its way

And God is shaping every day

You’ll be holding my hand

And I will understand

Bridge:

I see the morning through the night

My love will turn into the light

No more doubt, no fear remains

Just You and me, and holy flame

Final Chorus:

Someday, I will wake up

Shining in the light of grace

All I lost will turn to gold

In the warmth of Your embrace

All the pain that once held me

Will release and set me free

True love is real, and on its way

God has never looked away

You’ll be holding my hand

And I will understand
