Almighty Silence Lyrics Silence creeps over me slowly like winter
A thorn in my flesh, a Divine wound, a splinter
I still love you so, night and day
I sometimes just have nothing to say
Sorrow falls on me like evening, but I believe
Tomorrow I will wake rejoicing, for you will wipe my tears away
I long for the stillness of God, heavn'ly silence
But I don't know what to do with myself when I find it
Should I fill the space with my voice?
Or should I close my mouth and rejoice...?
Sorrow...
Night and day and every season
Lord of all, you owe me no reasons
Day or night, help me to sing:
'Thank you Lord, thank you Lord, thank you...'
I still love you so, night and day
I sometimes just have so much to say
Song Description:
"A confessional lyric, this song might have originally been titled "Summer Autumn Winter Silence," reflecting the seemingly seasonal bouts of my dysfunction in relationship with God. I'm immensely proud of this lyric, and the song itself is a bit of homage to Roy Orbison. I'd love him to have sung this!" - John Ellis (Tree 63)
