Do You Hear Me Lord

I watch the red lamb burn at night
Still hoping for holy sight
This quiet chapel feels alive
But I am struggling to survive

This mercy I'm not ready for
But still I kneel upon this floor
Your spirit lingers in the air
Like incense rising in a prayer

Do you hear me, Lord?
When the silence starts to burn can I feel you near?
When my thoughts begin to turn?
I've been waiting barely breathing in the grace you used to feel

If you know me like I know you
Then I bow beneath your will
The holy water feels like dew
The pews remember passing through

Along the aisles we once knew well
The story's only time can tell
The part of me that I won't let go
Is holding to the seeds you sow

Your spirit lingers in the air
Like incense arising in a prayer
Do you hear me, Lord?
When the silence starts to burn can I feel you near?

When my thoughts begin to turn?
I've been waiting barely breathing in the grace you used to feel
If you know me like I know you
Then I bow beneath your will

Maybe faith just learns to wait
Outside the narrow heaven's gate
If you hold me through the night
Then I will walk by faith, not sight

Do you hear me, Lord?
When the silence starts to burn can I feel you near?
When my thoughts begin to turn?
I've been waiting barely breathing in the grace you used to feel

If you know me like I know you
Then my heart is beating still
