I’m not afraid to hear the silence
I’m not afraid when I’m alone
I’ve seen a symphony of sunsets
I wanna know You as I’m known
I can hear You loud and clear

You’re the song inside my head
The melody I can’t forget
Louder than the world I’m in
You’re the song I’ve always heard
The instrument of grace throughout the universe
Louder than the world I’m in

I’m not afraid to look in darkness
I’m not afraid to loose control
I love how You orchestrate the sunrise from the starlight
Give me a song to call my own
I can hear You

You’re the song inside my head
The melody I can’t forget
Louder than the world I’m in
You’re the song I’ve always heard
The instrument of grace across a fallen world
Louder than the world I’m in

Life is an offering
Inside of this heartbeat
Today is a new song
Every verse is a new thought
Every breath is a chorus
My life is ascending
My life is ascending

Behind the Song:
"This song addresses the parallel between music and its ultimate creator. It’s about knowing God exists by how He has so beautifully orchestrated our lives like a song. It’s about His still, small voice rising like a song above the distracting, annoying, chaotic, noise of the world.

I hope that as we breathe, think, speak, move and act out every second of our lives, we’d understand our meaning and purpose under God: to surrender our will for His, be in harmony with the creator, and live in expectation of our restoration." - Michael Watson (Above The Golden State)
