Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lord, please sit close, the night is loud
The rain falls hard beneath the cloud
I try to keep my head up high
While storms are breaking in my sky
There's mud and smoke upon my coat
The truth is stuck inside my throat
I have no holy song to share
Just sit with me and pull a chair
[Chorus]
Just sit with me, Lord
Let me feel your presence near
I am running thin
And the darkness brings me fear
I've been losing sleep and fading
If I cannot hold my ground
Let me lean upon your shoulder
Till the morning light is found
[Verse 2]
I know my sins by their first name
They shadow me in quiet shame
My faith is like a half-burned match
A little warmth but fading fast
I don't need answers dressed in gold
Just mercy with sleeves rolled low
I have no holy song to share
Just sit with me and pull a chair
[Chorus]
Just sit with me, Lord
Let me feel your presence near
I am running thin
And the darkness brings me fear
I've been losing sleep and fading
If I cannot hold my ground
Let me lean upon your shoulder
Till the morning light is found
[Bridge]
I know dawn won't mend it all
Shadows wait upon the wall
But if you stay in this room
Maybe hope will start to bloom
[Chorus]
Just sit with me, Lord
Let me feel your presence near
I am running thin
And the darkness brings me fear
I've been losing sleep and fading
If I cannot hold my ground
I'm not healed, but I am standing
Till the morning light is found
