McMillan, John Mark - Silver Shore Lyrics
Billowing hills
Shoulders of steel
Hide behind faces of glass
The midnight tallies
Recollections of our past
These thoughts of home
And tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep
Tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep
Naked inside of our clothes
We're all terrified of the writhing ocean tide
But our pockets are all full of hope
These thoughts of home
And tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep
Tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep
We were born on heaven's silver shores
I know it in my heart there's more to be afforded
We were born on heaven's silver shores
I know it in my heart there's more to be afforded
Did I hear you in the driving rain
I swear somebody was calling my name again
We were born on heaven's silver shores
I know it in my heart there's more to be afforded
We were born on heaven's silver shores
I know it in my heart there's more to be afforded
We were made for the other side of the lake
It's more than we can take
The fever's gonna break for us
We were born on heaven's silver shores
I know it in my heart there's more to be afforded

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Billowing hills
Shoulders of steel
Hide behind faces of glass
[Verse 2]
The midnight tallies
The street light valleys
Recollections of our past
These thoughts of home
[Chorus]
And tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep
Tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep
[Verse 3]
We’re ghosts inside of our bodies
Naked inside of our clothes
We’re all terrified of the writhing ocean tide
But our pockets are all full of hope
These thoughts of home
[Chorus]
And tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep
Tonight we sleep
With lions all around
In furnaces of fire we sleep
[Bridge 1]x2
We were born on heaven’s silver shores
I know it in my heart there’s more to be afforded
[Bridge 2]
Did I hear you in the driving rain
I swear somebody was calling my name again
[Bridge 1]
We were born on heaven’s silver shores
I know it in my heart there’s more to be afforded
[Outro]
We were made for the other side of the lake
It’s more than we can take
The fever’s gonna break I know it's gonna break for us
These acoustic sessions are awesome!!!
Fascinada com suas músicas...
Deus tem falado comigo através de cada letra, que Ele possa ti abençoar cada vez mais!!!!!
Can anyone comment on the chord shapes he's playing? Particularly at the "We were born on Heaven's silver shores..." portion. Thanks.
Muchas gracias por tu arte. Congratulations from Lima Perú
This guy is one of my favorite artists!
So grateful that there is artists with such talent that glorify the Lord. The world needs more men and women on fire for the heart of God.
Beautiful.
Agreed, Wow! Lyrically, visually, musically and spiritually - pow!
A beautiful song about the hope that utterly sustains ones soul. My favourite song on the album. Thanks, John.
Amazing
Excellent hit! :-)

We were born on heaven’s silver shores
I know it in my heart there’s more to be afforded (x 2)
Did I hear you in the driving rain
I swear somebody was calling my name again
We were born on heaven’s silver shores
I know it in my heart there’s more
To be afforded
We were made on the other side of the lake
The fever’s gonna break
I know it's gonna break for us
Man, that's why I love you. Your voice is amazing live! So real and raw! I saw you in Chicago a few years ago and I was like right in front of that deep tone! Awesome!!! I was too nervous to say hi when you guys were sitting down before the shore. How silly!
Perfect lyrics.
I love how this is so raw yet it's so amazing. It's like sashimi. I think .. haha..this is so amazing
Oh man...don't stop making this good stuff. Come to Brazil,please
A very underrated singer/songwriter. Thanks for your posts and God bless you JMM!
Russell Reihart, I’m always so frustrated that he’s not more popular than he already is. Then, I have to remember that it’s an acquired taste.
Você é um homem abençoado por Deus.. Deus abençoe
I just love and appreciate how his music is soo sincere and from the heart. Thank you John. ❤️
