Verse 1

I bring this prayer as gently as I can, Or pretend the ache is easy now. But I can bring a faithful whisper: God is near somehow. When the night asks for more than words, When the next step feels unknown, The Lord is not far from your breathing; You do not walk alone.

Chorus

Verse 2

There is grace for a quiet lamp, There is room for tears and rest. You do not have to force an answer To be held against His chest. I will not make pain a performance, I will not rush your heart along. This is only love beside you, Turning prayer into a song.
