[Verse 1]
Mama said pray at the table
Fold your hands when the sky goes gray
I tried to grow a good heart, baby
Tried to keep the dark away
But the road got cold and crooked
And my plans all slipped right through
Now I sit here in the wreckage
Wondering if You do too
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve been calling through the ceiling
Through the ache in my chest
If You’re there in the silence
Lord, I could use a rest
[Chorus]
I’m looking for God
In the middle of this mess
I’m looking for God
’Cause I don’t know what comes next
I’m so tired, so tired
Of holding my own flame
I’m looking for God
Won’t You call me by my name
[Verse 2]
I wore my faith like a Sunday dress
Then life tore the hem in two
Every dream I held so tightly
Turned to dust in my hands too soon
Friends moved on, the lights went out
And I learned to smile and lie
But at night I hear my own heart
Like a baby asking why
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve been calling through the silence
Through the bruise and the bend
If You’re near this broken body
Come and gather me in
[Chorus]
I’m looking for God
In the middle of this mess
I’m looking for God
’Cause I don’t know what comes next
I’m so tired, so tired
Of holding my own flame
I’m looking for God
Won’t You call me by my name
[Bridge]
If I’m honest, I’m not brave now
I am only skin and bone
If faith is a wide-open doorway
Then I’m standing there alone
So if You find me down in the valley
If You hear me where I fall
I’m still reaching, I’m still waiting
Even if I’ve got nothing at all
[Final Chorus]
I’m looking for God
In the middle of this mess
I’m looking for God
’Cause I don’t know what comes next
I’m so tired, so tired
Of holding my own flame
I’m looking for God
Won’t You call me by my name
I’m looking for God
I’m looking for God
