When You Are Near

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

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

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
'Cause 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
Here's my heart

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

I know that You've calmed my fears
'Cause I know that You've washed my tears
