[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I sat in silence, heart full of shame. Couldn’t lift my head, couldn’t speak Your name. Every promise I broke played back in my mind. So I buried my soul and blocked You from my mind. [Pre-Chorus] I thought You’d left, I thought You’d turned. My faith had faded, refused to learn. But in the quiet, I heard You call. Still I avoided You, though I was lost. [Chorus] I was ashamed to pray. Felt too far gone to say Your name. But You were there the whole time. Listening in my silent cries I thought I'd lost Your grace. But You ran to meet me anyway. Even when I was too ashamed to pray. [Verse 2] I searched for answers in every place. But truth was staring right at my face. I wondered, Lord… will You hear my prayer? Is it too late to plead? Are You still there? [Verse 3] Was I too far, too lost in my pride? Too ashamed to call you, so I tried to hide. I thought I could handle it, carry it through. But I broke down… and I needed You. [Solo] [Bridge] Tried to fix myself, to earn back light. But grace don’t work that way, not right. You didn’t wait for me to come. You stepped into my shame and called me Son. [Pre-Chorus] You didn’t flinch, You didn’t leave. You bent down low and carried me. What kind of love won't walk away. The kind that finds me when I stray. [Chorus] I was ashamed to pray, Felt too unclean to find my way But You were near when I had none You held me long before I’d run I thought Your love would fade But You broke through every wall I made Even when I was too ashamed to pray [Verse 4] You heard the words I didn’t speak You saw the tears I wouldn’t weep You loved me where I wouldn’t go You knew the weight I couldn’t show. [Final Chorus] I’m not ashamed to pray. 'Cause You were faithful every day. Now when I fall, I call Your name. You meet me there and heal my shame. I’ll never run away. You proved You love me anyway. Even when I was too ashamed to pray.
