Stay Near Me

[Verse 1]
Soft rain
On the window
On my skin
I’ve been
Running circles in my head
Quiet room
But my heart is loud again
So I sit here
Till I feel You breathe me in
[Chorus]
Stay near me
Don’t let me go
I fold my fears
Inside Your robe
Every shadow
Falls at Your feet
I don’t need answers
If You stay near me
[Verse 2]
Cold hands
Holding onto worn-out prayers
You come
Like a kindness in the air
Small voice
Cutting through the thunder there
You say
“I was always
Always here”
[Chorus]
Stay near me
Don’t let me go
I fold my fears
Inside Your robe
Every shadow
Falls at Your feet
I don’t need answers
If You stay near me
[Bridge]
If I wander
Call me closer (closer)
If I tremble
Hold me steady
If I’m breaking
Make me tender
Here I am
Here I am
I am ready
[Chorus]
Stay near me
Don’t let me go
I lay my life
In what You spoke
Every sorrow
Falls at Your feet
I don’t need every answer
Just stay near me
[Outro]
Soft rain
On the window
On my skin
You are here
And I’m breathing You in

Intimate modern worship ballad with warm felt piano and airy pads, gentle pulses and distant soft rain foley; female vocals upfront and breathy in the verses, opening into layered harmonies and a lifting melodic arc in the choruses. Subtle swells and toms build into a heartfelt final refrain, then pull back to a quiet, reverent outro., warm, heartfelt, soft, worship
