[Intro: Short fingerpicked acoustic, warm Rhodes] [Verse 1: Male lead, intimate sung delivery] Dad drove north through summer rain, Mom found peace beside the lake. One-thirteen beneath the pines, A little tent, a slower time. [Verse 1: Female response] Morning mist and coffee steam, Loons would wake us from our dreams. Before I knew the words to pray, Your love was meeting me that way. [Chorus: Both, male melody, female close harmony] Where the quiet calls my name, Jesus, You are still the same. Through the pines and through the pain, Your love finds me here again. From the garden’s empty grave To the water’s gentle sway, I am Yours beyond the flame, Where the quiet calls my name. [Verse 2: Male lead] After Dad, I brought Mom back, Set her chair beside the path. All the years we couldn’t keep Moved like shadows on the lake. [Verse 2: Female response] Now you leave the crowds behind, Find a shore beneath the pines. Nothing there to prove or earn, Only room for your return. [Chorus: Both, brushed drums opening to restrained sticks] Where the quiet calls my name, Jesus, You are still the same. Through the pines and through the pain, Your love finds me here again. From the garden’s empty grave To the water’s gentle sway, I am Yours beyond the flame, Where the quiet calls my name. [Instrumental Turnaround: Brief clean electric answer, tiny harmonica] [Bridge: Male, stripped back] At the tomb, she stood in tears. [Bridge: Female] Then her name was all she heard. [Bridge: Male] Risen Lord, You meet me here. [Bridge: Both, gentle harmony] In the stillness of Your word. [Final Chorus: Both, warm restrained lift, no belting] Where the quiet calls my name, Jesus, You are still the same. Through the pines and through the pain, Your love finds me here again. From the garden’s empty grave To the road I take today, I am Yours beyond the flame, Where the quiet calls my name. [Outro: Male] When the fire fades away, [Outro: Female] Your love stays. [Outro: Both, softly resolved] Where the quiet calls my name. [End]
