Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] There was a place Back of the pews Back of my doubts You held my hand Mama was praying Your name out loud I see her face Every amen Every soft sigh I miss her now But You were there the whole time [Chorus] Chosen stars in a midnight sky You were there You were there all along Jesus Father You redeem my time Every loss Every tear Every wrong God You turn memory into light I can’t resist In the dark In the ache In the miss [Verse 2] I hear his voice Dad saying “Son Keep your head high” Then he was gone And all that was left was why But in the ache You wrote Your promise over my fear I feel You now Whispering “Child I am here” [Chorus] Chosen stars in a midnight sky You were there You were there all along Jesus Father You redeem my time Every loss Every tear Every wrong God You turn memory into light I can’t resist In the dark In the ache In the miss [Bridge] Every name I call You have carried too Every empty chair You are walking through Teach my heart to trust Every sacred scar All I’ve loved and lost You hold in Your arms [Chorus] Chosen stars in a midnight sky You were there You were there all along Jesus Father You redeem my time Every loss Every tear Every wrong God You turn memory into light I can’t resist In the dark In the ache In the miss

Atmospheric Christian pop ballad with male vocals; gentle piano and soft pads at first, then steady toms and warm bass swell in the chorus. Intimate verses close to the mic, chorus opens with stacked harmonies and airy reverb. Subtle guitar swells and a simple, memorable hook that circles back like a prayer.
