[Intro]
Softly I whisper to the night, a tether in the dark
Folded hands, a quiet plea, a patient, fragile spark
[Verse 1]
If I am the rain, let mercy fall on me slow
I search the skies for a sign, for warmth I cannot show
My hands tremble a little, my heart keeps a steady cry
I’m reaching past the silence where your whispered answers lie
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold me in your shadow, teach me how to be still
In every broken question, let your comfort bend its will
[Chorus]
Lord, are you listening? In my breath, I seek your voice
Where faith is thin and weary, grant me grace, grant me choice
Wrap me in your mercy till I can rise and see
That you are near, you are faithful, you are all I need
[Verse 2]
I carry yesterday’s sorrows like stones against my chest
But I won’t abandon prayer when sorrow wears a mask of rest
If doubt is a river, pull me to your patient shore
Remind me: you began this dawn and you’ll guide me evermore
[Pre-Chorus]
Hold me in your shadow, teach me how to be still
In every broken question, let your comfort bend its will
[Chorus]
Lord, are you listening? In my breath, I seek your voice
Where faith is thin and weary, grant me grace, grant me choice
Wrap me in your mercy till I can rise and see
That you are near, you are faithful, you are all I need
[Bridge]
If I falter, you will steady me with tenderness so true
In the hush between my prayers, I feel your promise breaking through
[Chorus]
Lord, are you listening? In my breath, I seek your voice
Where faith is thin and weary, grant me grace, grant me choice
Wrap me in your mercy till I can rise and see
That you are near, you are faithful, you are all I need
[Outro]
So I keep my vigil, not alone but in your light
Until the morning answers come and comforts calm the night
