What Do You Hear?

What do you hear when you are all alone? When the past comes calling, you don’t have to face it on your own. When the night says there’s no end, Lord, let me hear Your voice again. Do you hear the voices of the past? Do they turn one moment into all you’ll ever have? Do you ever wonder how it will all end? Do you hear the enemy’s voice again and again? It keeps asking questions, never leaves a light, Pulls the old words forward in the middle of the night. Every echo wants to tell you who you are; Every echo draws the dark around the scar. But a voice can accuse and still be wrong. The night can feel endless and still move on. I am bringing every question into the light; I will not call the darkness truth tonight. When I’m alone, Lord, stay near. Speak Your truth above the fear. When the old voice starts again, Remind my heart whose I am. I don’t know how the story ends; I know I’m not alone in it. When I’m alone, Lord, stay near. Let Your voice be what I hear. The past keeps knocking like it owns this room, Sets its old accusations walking through the gloom. It says the final page is already sealed; It says the wound is all that can be healed. But I won’t let a lie define the whole of me; I’ll bring the fear to You and let You answer me. I don’t need to see the ending from this place; I need the strength to meet this hour by grace. Again and again— You are still here. Again and again— Your voice is clear. The past is not my master. Fear will not decide. I bring the questions, Lord— Stay with me tonight. If I cannot quiet every sound, Be the steady truth that holds me now. If tomorrow hides beyond my sight, Keep me faithful in this night. I will listen for the voice that calls me Yours; I will wait beside the open door. When I’m alone, Lord, stay near. Speak Your truth above the fear. When the old voice starts again, Remind my heart whose I am. I don’t know how the story ends; I know I’m not alone in it. When I’m alone, Lord, stay near. Let Your voice be what I hear. What do I hear when I am all alone? The questions still rise— But I am not alone.
