Lyrics

I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it's okay
The last thing I need is to be heard
But to hear what You would say


Chorus
Word of God speak
Would You pour down like rain
Washing my eyes to see
Your majesty
To be still and know
That You're in this place
Please let me stay and rest
In Your holiness


Word of God speak


I'm finding myself in the midst of You
Beyond the music, beyond the noise
All that I need is to be with You
And in the quiet hear Your voice


REPEAT CHORUS 2x


I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it's okay

Meaning & Inspiration

The song treats silence as an act of worshipful attention. Its speaker reaches a point where more words, music, and noise cannot provide what is needed, so the prayer turns toward hearing God. Rain, opened eyes, stillness, rest, and holiness shape a quiet scene in which divine speech brings clarity. The lyric does not reject music; instead, it places communion with God beyond performance and asks for perception that can recognize his majesty.

Psalm 46:10 gives direct biblical context to the call to be still and know God. Psalm 119:18 closely parallels the request for opened eyes, asking God to reveal wonderful things in his instruction. Isaiah 55:10-11 also supports the image of Gods word descending like rain and accomplishing its purpose. These passages help frame the chorus as a prayer for receptive listening, spiritual sight, and rest in Gods presence rather than a demand for immediate answers.
