The In-Between (We Had Hoped)
[Verse 1] I’ve got questions stacked beside my bed Prayers half-finished running through my head I keep trying to connect the dots You keep asking me to just… stop Jesus Here I am with open hands Empty plans and trembling again Every answer feels a mile away But You’re sitting in the ache [Chorus] In the in-between When I can’t see Teach me how to stay Not run ahead of You In the quiet place Where nothing moves Let my heart be still and know that You are true I don’t have to fix a thing I just have to lean On You in the in-between [Verse 2] I confess I want a map in hand Step-by-step A tidy Tidy plan But You’re writing in a slower ink On a page I only partly see So I lay down all my diagrams Every “what if” falling from my hands If this waiting is where You will be Then this waiting is enough for me [Chorus] In the in-between When I can’t see Teach me how to stay Not run ahead of You In the quiet place Where nothing moves Let my heart be still and know that You are true I don’t have to fix a thing I just have to lean On You in the in-between [Bridge] If You never spell it out You are still my answer If the doors don’t open now You are still my way If the silence stretches on You are still my Shepherd I surrender what I crave To the mystery of Your name (Jesus) [Chorus] In the in-between When I can’t see Teach me how to stay Not run ahead of You In the quiet place Where nothing moves Let my heart be still and know that You are true I don’t have to fix a thing I just have to lean On You in the in-between On You in the in-between (I trust You) On You in the in-between
