Why Lord, Why

[Intro]
In the stillness of the prayer, I speak to the sky
Feeling lost, feeling broken, asking the why
Oh Lord, hear my plea, I’m calling your name
Through the fire and pain, I seek your flame

[Verse 1]
Sitting in this church, shadows of my past
A year of hell, memories that last
Praying for mercy, praying for grace
Trying to find my way, lost in this place

[Pre-Chorus]
Every woman’s words cut deep, telling me I’m undone
A spirit shattered, a soul far gone
But I cling to faith, though the nights are long
Lord, I need your strength to stay strong

[Chorus]
Why did you let me fall so low?
Why did you take everything I know?
In this trial, what am I meant to learn?
Oh Lord, I trust, I still yearn

[Bridge]
I lay down in my tent, gaze at the dark sky
Waiting for answers, tears in my eye
You know my pain, you feel my hurt
Teach me in silence, through the dirt

[Outro]
So I ask again, with a humble heart
Guide me, Lord, give me a new start
Through the hurt, through the rain
I’ll trust in you and find my faith again
