Mikhail Bennett - Do You Hear Me Lord

And music
The house is quiet after midnight
Only shadows on the wall
A single candle on the table
And an open book of psalms
My hands are folded in the silence
But the words are hard to say
Sometimes faith feels like a whisper
That the night might take away
Do you hear me
Alone tonight when
I speak your name alone
When my voice is less strong than the than the wind around and singing
This home
I'M NOT ASKING you for miracles
Or a brighter road to walk
Just a sign inside the silence
That you're listening
I talk
Here's a warning these tired shoulders
Time has slowed the steps
I take
Every loss becomes a question
Only heaven can wait
Still I kneel
Here in the darkness
Where the quiet seems so deep
And place the weight of all my worries
In the hands that never sleep
Do you hear me
Lord tonight screaming
No voice breaks through the night
Something in the stillness tells me faith
Is stronger than my sight
Do you hear me lord tonight
I know you
Hear me lord tonight
Through the tears
I cannot hide
Through the tears
I cannot
And music] hide
Through the prayers that fall like rain
Through the prayers that fall like rain
From a heart that's worn inside
If my voice should fade tomorrow
Before another dawn appears
Let these whispered words
Reach heaven
Lord, you helped me through the years
The candle slowly
Loses light
The night begins
To close
But peace settles in the twilight
Like a prayer the
Father knows
The Father knows
