Title: In Your Silence View count: 4268 Rating: 5.0 (6 ratings) Description: CCM/Rock (Starts slow, but ends with a punch!) This song came to me while I was walking along the beach the day after my pastor, Scott McKay, had delivered a powerful sermon about the importance of making time for silence in our worship, so we can hear the voice of God. I thought I'd take a trip to the beach to have some 'quiet time' with the Lord. I took my dog, Buddy, with me, and turned him loose to chase the seagulls while I walked in the surf, listening for that 'still small voice'. Well...all I heard was the crashing of the waves, the roar of the wind, thunder from a distant storm, the seagulls laughing, and the barking of my dog! I had just about given up on finding any "silence" when this song popped into my head. Although our sermon the day before ahd been about OUR silence, and taking the time to really listen for and to God, this song turned out to be about the times when HE chooses to be silent to us. God builds our faith in these times, if we choose to let him. I hope this song really makes you realize that God's Silence can be a comfort, not a punishment. He cares about us enough to strengthen us, even if it means not talking to us for awhile. In Your Silence © Debbie L. Rice, (BMI) 2005 (Performed by Jennifer Barber) In Your Silence We long for a whisper In Your Silence We seek Your face In Your Silence You teach us to trust You In Your Silence We learn how to pray. In Your Silence We learn about patience In Your Silence You teach us faith In Your Silence We yearn for an answer In Your Silence We learn how to wait. (Chorus) Waves crash in the ocean with a roar, Thunder booms in a lightning storm Wind howls thru a forest of trees But Your silence speaks louder to me, Yes, Your silence speaks louder to me. In Your Silence Your Spirit is with us In Your Silence You hold us close In Your Silence Your arms are around us In Your Silence You love us the most. (Chorus) Waves crash in the ocean with a roar, Thunder booms in a lightning storm Wind howls thru a forest of trees But Your silence speaks louder to me Yes, Your silence brings comfort to me. (Instrumental) In Your Silence Faith can move mountains In Your Silence The weak become strong In Your Silence You fill us with power In Your Silence Our faith will carry on. In Your Silence Our faith will carry on! Tags: christian, music, video, faith, refined, silence, independent, indieheaven, lake, jackson, debbie, rice, beach, Author: faithrefined |
