i ve been through the valley of the shadow of death and i ve lived in the land of despair but here in the silence alone and afraid is a sadness i could not compare so visit me here in the dark let me know your light i ll linger as long as it takes i will wait with all of my might i m crying out speak to me i m longing to hear your voice in the night calling out come meet with me you re all i desire for your love is better than life i waited at twilight for signs of relief from an ache that arrested the day but now sunset is gone and i m still here alone yet in fierce desperation i ll stay so visit me here in the shadows restore my sight i ll linger as long as it takes i will wait with all of my might i m crying out speak to me i m longing to hear your voice in the night calling out meet with me you re all i desire for your love is better than life and all i need is here in your presence here in your word speak to me to me lend your ear to my cry i need you i need you you alone you satisfy come meet me you alone complete me
