There is quite a distance from here back to the shore
But this is where I find myself as I wait for more
You have taken me this far where horizons hold hands
Far away from all the noise, where I'm the only man

When the silence is so loud that I could scream
When the nighttime passes by without a dream
In the east the sun will rise
‘Cause the world moves in Your time
Lord, I trust Your perfect will
So I will just be still

A quiet promise in the wind whispers on the lake
Echoed words, they bring me rest
A peace surrounds this place
Soaked to the bone I sit
but my soul is drained
Of the living water I once dran
now I wait for rain

When the silence is so loud that I could scream
When the nighttime passes by without a dream
In the east the sun will rise
’Cause the world moves in Your time
Lord, I trust Your perfect will
So I will just be

Waiting for the clouds to come
After all this time
I know the darkest night will end
And now I realize
Though the world may isolate me
You will not forsake me
I await the day I hear Your voice again

When the silence is so loud that I can sing
Of the peace that passes by within my dreams
The morning sun will rise
The world moves in your time
Lord, I trust Your perfect will
So I will stay here
I will just be still.
