As a child I spoke your name
You came and filled the void inside me,
but I could never understand your sacrifice.
I quickly learned to trust your ways
and to lean upon your promise,
and you gently took my hand and led the way.

You were there in the stillnes
You were there in the silence
You were there when I chose to walk with you
You were there in the stillness
You were there in the silence
You were there when I chose to follow you.
You were there...

Oooh......

I began to live my life
not according to your will.
I found other ways to satisfy my needs.
It was in my darkest hour,
I was humbled I was broken
and you heard my cry and helped me find my way.

You were there in the stillnes
You were there in the silence
You were there when my frail heart ran from you.
You were there in the stillness
You were there in the silence
You were there when I cryed out to you.
You were there.

Oooh.....

We are lost and we are searching.
We have questions and no answers
and we hold on with selfish pride and turn from you.
But if we're still we can feel you,
if we're quiet we can hear you
and you will come to us with oopen arms and say.

I am there in the stillness.
I am there in the silence.
I am there when you feel you can't go on.
I am there in the stillness.
I am there in the silence.
I was there to take your place upon that cross.
I am there.

Oooh....

I am there...
