Cover Me with Your Holy Mantle

My God... please hear me tonight. Cover me with Your holy mantle. Send me an angel. [Verse 1] I no longer know how to carry a heart that cannot take much more. I walk around with my soul wounded, hiding the pain behind every door. I speak, but no one really listens. I cry without making a sound. And when I tell them what I’m feeling, no one believes the truth I’ve found. [Pre-Chorus] But You know every lonely evening, every teardrop, every fear. Though my voice is weak and broken, I still believe that You can hear. [Chorus] Cover me with Your holy mantle. Please don’t let me fall, my Lord. Send an angel here beside me to hold my tired and aching heart. Cover me when I am frightened, when it feels too hard to breathe. Send an angel here to tell me: “There is still a reason to believe.” [Verse 2] I am tired of always being stronger, of waking up without any rest. Of giving love with open hands while hiding sorrow in my chest. I do not need a perfect answer or promises that understand. I only need a voice that won’t condemn me, and somewhere safe to place my hands. [Pre-Chorus] Because You know my whole story, all the things I hide to protect. Look inside my soul, eternal Father. Tonight I need to feel You again. [Chorus] Cover me with Your holy mantle. Please don’t let me fall, my Lord. Send an angel here beside me to hold my tired and aching heart. Cover me when I am frightened, when it feels too hard to breathe. Send an angel here to tell me: “There is still a reason to believe.” [Bridge, growing stronger] Even if I cannot see the doorway, even if the night feels without end, place a light upon the road before me. Open one more path for me again. I don’t ask for life without its sorrow. I only ask for strength to carry on. Stay beside me through this darkness until I feel that I belong. [Final Chorus, powerful] Cover me with Your holy mantle. Hold me close and don’t let go. Send an angel here beside me. Bring some peace into my soul. Cover me beneath Your wings of mercy. Do not let the pain defeat my heart. Send an angel to remind me I am worthy of Your love. Cover me with Your holy mantle. Stay beside me until I see the sun. When I can no longer find the words, Lord, hear the silence where my prayers come from. [Outro, soft] My God... please don’t leave me tonight. Cover me with Your holy mantle. Send me an angel... and stay beside me too.
