Silent presence

SILENT PRESENCE

by Robert Ramage

Intro (spoken or soft sung)
When the world goes quiet
And the weight feels too much to bear
You don’t need answers
Just someone who’ll stay right there
Verse 1
When the night is heavy and hope feels thin
When the weight of the world is pulling you in
I won’t fix the cracks or pretend I know
I’ll stand in the storm, let the hard winds blow
Verse 2
When the tears fall fast and the sky turns gray
When you’ve lost your way, don’t know what to say
I’ll sit in the silence, no need to explain
Sometimes love listens more than it speaks your pain
Chorus
I’ll be the light when your fire burns low
A shelter of love when you’re lost in the cold
No speeches, no wisdom, no need to appear strong
Just standing beside you where you belong
Verse 3
When your faith feels weak and your heart is torn
When doubt echoes loud and you’re feeling worn
I won’t rush your healing or ask you to run
I’ll carry the weight till you’re ready to stand
Verse 4
When the road feels endless, the silence loud
When you’re breaking inside but still holding proud
I’ll stay when the answers don’t come out right
I’ll be the shadow that guards your light
Bridge
You don’t have to fight this battle alone
Love speaks soft, stronger than stone
Through the quiet, through the strain
I’ll be the calm that steadies the rain
Chorus (bigger build / full band)
I’ll be the light when your fire burns low
A shelter of love when you’re lost in the cold
No speeches, no wisdom, just standing near
A quiet reminder that someone is here
Outro (gentle, stripped back)
So let’s be the ones who lift and defend
A hand to the broken, a shoulder to lend
‘Cause love’s greatest gift isn’t words we declare
It’s simply the promise
That we will be there
