In the Void, I am not Alone

I woke with the weight of the world on my chest

Nothing to give,

nothing left

The room was a hollow,

the night had no end

I reached through the silence

again and again

I wore out my prayers,

let the cold take my name

Stood at the edge

of a heart full of shame

But somewhere beside me,

beneath all the noise

I felt a still presence,

a whispering voice

I am not alone

in this valley of bones

Even here, I am held,

even here, I am known

When the lights clear the darkness

And the shadows lose their hold

There You are in the silence

Jesus Christ, my soul

When I cannot find a way out

When my faith is running dry

You are standing in the void with me

Jesus Christ, You are alive

The sorrow still follows,

but it does not reign

Your mercy comes slowly

like healing through rain

I bring You the emptiness,

all that I hide

You meet me with love

that will not step aside

I am not alone

in this valley of bones

Even here, I am held,

even here, I am known

You found me in the falling

You stayed through every night

You called me from the empty

And led me toward the light

No pit is deep enough

No night can hide Your face

The One who walked through death itself

Is here with me today

When the lights

clear the darkness

And the shadows lose their hold

There You are

in the silence

Jesus Christ, my soul

When I cannot find a way out

When my faith is running dry

You are standing in the void with me

Jesus Christ,

You are alive In the void,

You are with me

In the dark, You are the light Jesus Christ,

You are with me You are with me tonight (tonight)
