Silence - Joy Williams

Are You listening

To anything that I say

‘Cause I been praying

How many prayers can I pray

I’m still waiting

Maybe You’ll show up today

I know You’re here, but I can’t feel You

And if You’re speaking, I can’t hear You

How much longer will this last

So okay

Answer me with silence

It’s okay if You don’t say a word

You’re testing me to trust You’ll be faithful in this quiet

So okay

Answer me With silence

Why do I question

Your intentions for me When Your affection

Is a proven legacy

Oh Father, Father

Turn my fears into peace

I know Your love will never leave

I know You want what’s best for me You’re testing me to trust You’ll be faithful in this quiet

Oh, it’s okay

If You answer me with silence

And it’s okay if You don’t say a word

You’re testing me to trust You’ll be faithful in this quiet

So okay

Answer me With silence
