The Deluge

Because today I do not have the words:

Hold My Heart by Tenth Avenue North

How long must I pray

Must I pray to You?

How long must I wait

Must I wait for You?
How long till I see Your face

See You shining through?

I'm on my knees
Begging You to notice me
I'm on my knees

Father, will You turn to me?

One tear in the driving rain

One voice in a sea of pain

Could the maker of the stars

Hear the sound of my breaking heart?

One life, that's all I am

Right now I can barely stand

If You're everything You say You are

Would You come close and hold my heart?

I've been so afraid, afraid to close my eyes

So much can slip away before I say goodbye

But if there's no other way

I'm done asking why

'Cause I'm on my knees

Begging You to notice me

I'm on my knees

Father, will You run to me?

One tear in the driving rain
One voice in a sea of pain
Could the maker of the stars
Hear the sound of my breaking heart?
One life, that's all I am
Right now I can barely stand
If You're everything You say You are
Would You come close and hold my heart?

So many questions without answers

Your promises remain
I can't see but I'll take my chances

To hear you call my name

One tear in the driving rain
One voice in a sea of pain
Could the maker of the stars
Hear the sound of my breaking heart
One life, that's all I am
Right now I can barely stand
If You're everything You say You are
Would You come close and hold my heart

Could You hold my heart
Hold my heart?
