In the Quiet

Verse 1

Thank You for hearing every word I say,

Every sigh I breathe when I can’t find a way.

You listen close to the silence in me,

You meet me there with what my eyes can’t see.

When my thoughts are loud and my faith feels thin,

You answer gently from deep within.

Not always loud, not always clear,

But peace arrives and I know You’re near.

Pre-Chorus

You don’t rush me, You don’t turn away,

You speak in truth when I choose to stay.

Chorus

So help me quiet my heart tonight,

So I can hear Your voice in the stillness of life.

Shape my prayers by Your Spirit’s hand,

Teach me to trust what I don’t yet understand.

I’ll lean in close, I won’t run or hide,

I’ll follow Your whisper with faith as my guide.

Draw me deeper, Lord, every day,

I want to meet You… in the quiet place.

Verse 2

You hear the prayers I don’t know how to pray,

The weight I carry, the words I can’t say.

When conviction comes, it’s wrapped in grace,

Not to shame me, but to help me change.

You speak through peace that settles my soul,

Through clarity when I lose control.

And even when the answer’s “wait,”

I learn obedience is still faith.

Pre-Chorus

I don’t need signs written in the sky,

Just ears to hear and a willing life.

Chorus

So help me quiet my heart tonight,

So I can hear Your voice in the stillness of life.

Shape my prayers by Your Spirit’s hand,

Teach me to trust what I don’t yet understand.

I’ll lean in close, I won’t run or hide,

I’ll follow Your whisper with faith as my guide.

Draw me deeper, Lord, every day,

I want to meet You… in the quiet place.

Bridge

Less of my hurry, more of Your will,

Less of my noise, teach me to be still.

If You say “go,” I’ll step ahead,

If You say “rest,” I’ll bow my head.

I don’t want comfort without Your truth,

I want communion that leads me through.

Not just to listen, but to obey,

To trust You fully, come what may.

Final Chorus

So help me quiet my heart tonight,

Let every fear fade out of sight.

Shape my prayers, reshape my ways,

Align my steps with what You say.

I won’t rush past what You want to show,

I’ll walk in trust, I’ll move in slow.

Draw me deeper, Lord, every day,

I want to live with You… in the quiet place.

Outro

You hear me…

You speak back…

And I will listen.
