Passion - Glorious Day Lyrics
Lyrics
Verse 1
I was buried beneath my shame
Who could carry that kind of weight
It was my tomb
Till I met You
Verse 2
I was breathing but not alive
All my failures I tried to hide
It was my tomb
Till I met You
Chorus
You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day
You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day
Verse 3
Now Your mercy has saved my soul
Now Your freedom is all I know
The old made new
Jesus, when I met You
Chorus
You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day
You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day
Bridge
I needed rescue
My sin was heavy
But chains break at the weight of Your glory
I needed shelter
I was an orphan
Now You call me a citizen of heaven
When I was broken
You were my healing
Your love is the air that I'm breathing
I have a future
My eyes are open
Chorus
You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day
You called my name
And I ran out of that grave
Out of the darkness
Into Your glorious day

Passion - Glorious Day (Live) ft. Kristian Stanfill
Meaning & Inspiration
Passion's "Glorious Day (Live)" featuring Kristian Stanfill, released on February 17, 2017, isn't just a song; it's a vibrant declaration of salvation and the transformative power of Christ's resurrection, echoing the foundational truths of our faith. At its core, the song traces the arc of a life redeemed, moving from a state of lostness to the overwhelming reality of God's grace. The narrative isn't a passive recounting of events, but an active testimony of how the gospel message fundamentally alters our existence, enabling us to proclaim, "And all I am is Yours." This profound surrender and redefined identity are central to the song's message, mirroring the transformation described in 2 Corinthians 5:17, which states, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" The lyrics effectively convey the shock and wonder of experiencing God's love, moving from darkness to light, a theme powerfully illustrated in Colossians 1:13, where it says, "For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves." The repeated affirmation of a "glorious day" isn't merely about a positive outlook; it's about recognizing the divine intervention that has irrevocably changed everything. It speaks to the certainty of hope found in Jesus, whose victory over death, as celebrated in verses like 1 Corinthians 15:57, "But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ," underpins the very essence of this triumphant anthem. The song encourages a posture of gratitude and worship, acknowledging that every breath and every moment are now dedicated to Him who brought us out of spiritual death. It's an invitation to embrace this new reality, to live with the unshakeable confidence that comes from knowing we are found, redeemed, and eternally belonging to God.
