[Verse 1] They told me God loves me, said it loud in the light, But I felt like a shadow just outside of His sight. I was praying for answers, on my knees in the dark, Sending words up to heaven— never felt a spark. [Pre-Chorus] So I tried to be better, tried to earn what was free, But the harder I chased it, the further from me. [Chorus] Then I breathed… and I stayed, let the silence remain, Found a voice in the stillness calling me by my name. Not from up above, but somewhere within— If this isn’t Your love, where have You been? [Verse 2] Sat alone with my thoughts, let them rise, let them fall, Every scar, every failure— didn’t fight them at all. Placed my hand on my chest, felt the weight start to move, Whispered, “You are enough,” like I finally knew. [Pre-Chorus] No more running in circles, no more needing to prove, Just a quiet compassion I was learning to use. [Chorus] When I breathed… and I stayed, let the silence remain, Found a light in the stillness calling me by my name. Not from up above, but somewhere within— If this isn’t Your love, where have You been? [Bridge] Maybe grace was never distant, maybe I just couldn’t see, That the love I kept on searching for was reaching back through me. [Final Chorus] Now I breathe… and I stay, no more needing to hide, There’s a peace in the stillness and it won’t be denied. Call it God, call it truth, call it healing within— I don’t question it now… I just let it in.
