I’m looking for an answer
I’m waiting for a sign
but all I hear is silence when my life is on the line
Where were you in my failure
Where were you in my trial?
I labored for this empire now the stones are in a pile
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
Am I the only one?
In the middle of my mess, I will wait for You here
I don’t want to be alone, I want to know You’re near
In the midst of my pain, in the depths of my fears
I don’t want to be alone, I want to know You’re near
God I need Your presence
I’m longing for Your touch
I know that You can heal me Lord
Would it really be too much?
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
I just can’t do this alone
In the middle of my mess, I will wait for You here
I don’t want to be alone, I want to know You’re near
In the midst of my pain, in the depths of my fears
I don’t want to be alone, I want to know You’re near
When I was lost you left heaven to find me, I know I'm not alone.
Lord, I just need you to whisper you love me, remind me that I am your own.
In the middle of my mess, I will wait for You here
I don’t want to be alone, I want to know You’re near
In the midst of my pain, in the depths of my fears
I don’t want to be alone, I want to know You’re near
