Lyrics

There's no need to say a thing when i'm before you
In this silence I feel refreshed with peace
Break this noise that binds the voice that tries to speak
Open my eyes to see your gracious, sovereign reach

Chorus
It's hard to talk when I feel that you are near
When all is quiet it's the beauty that I hear
This hidden place where I know that you've calmed my fears
I know that you've washed my tears

The seasons of change i've faced have never left me wounded
Only scars of hurt, but never deeply rooted
This healing I have felt, no burden can replace
Redemptive hope has been the story of my pain

Chorus
It's hard to talk when I feel that you are near
When all is quiet it's the beauty that I hear
This hidden place where I know that you've calmed my fears
I know that you've washed my tears

All is lost without the breath of life you give, and you give so much
I want nothing more than you, so here's my heart

Chorus
It's hard to talk when I feel that you are near
When all is quiet it's the beauty that I hear
This hidden place where I know that you've calmed my fears
I know that you've washed my tears
