Hallowed

The noise is gone
It used to fill me
Every corner
Every breath

Now it's quiet
Almost too quiet
And prayer is all
That's left

No more running
From the silence
No more drowning
In the sound

Just the echo
Of Jesus
Shining down

I thought empty
Meant alone
But there's a peace
I've never known

There were stories
I kept telling
Like they were
All I had

Every version
Of my broken
Every name
Of what went bad

Now they fall
Like dust behind me
No more weight
I have to prove

Just a faith
Learning slowly
Letting God
Carry me through

If I embrace
His holy name
I finally know
He'll release my shame

I thought I'd disappear
Losing everything I knew
Now I'm still standing here
With God's hands pulling me through

And in the questions
There's something clear
His steadfastness
Has brought me here

No more fear
No more need
Just Him
And me.
