Come back to me with all your heart Don't let fear keep us apart Turn from your sin and cling to the Lord Be wholly changed by this Love outpoured The world is screaming for our attention While He patiently waits for our affection In this dry and barren land Our hearts learn to understand How to walk with the Lord and hear His voice And, back in His arms, we will rejoice For in the desert there is suffering and pain And we cry out for a single drop of rain But there is a focus and a silence With a beauty all its own And in the midst of hatred and violence We know we are never alone You have moved my heart in ways I can't contain The words are filled with healing and pain You have pierced me Oh Lord with your unfailing love And I am powerless to resist this precious holy flood Your music stirs my soul to sing to you King of my life and all that is good and true In these forty days help me focus now Help me hear you in the silence somehow In this time of trial and testing Be at peace my soul for, in God's merciful heart, you are resting We walk in the light with darkness around us We are free because God's grace has found us Today, right now, my soul has been stirred For we live not by bread, but by God's word
