Lyrics to “In the Silence” by Jack Fowler —

“In the silence, there is peace.  In the silence, there is unspoken joy.

In the silence, there’s release from a world full of chaos and noise.

So I wait for these precious moments when I hear all that could never be said.

And right here, in this holy silence, I find God, I find myself.”

“Answer when I call, my saving God.  In my troubles, you cleared a way; show me favor; hear my prayer . . . .  Know that the LORD works wonders for the faithful; the LORD hears when I call out . . . .  Ponder in silence . . . .  Trust in the LORD . . . .  In peace I shall both lie down and sleep,  for you alone, LORD, make me secure” (Psalm 4:2-9).

“In the silence, there is peace.  In the silence, there is unspoken joy.
In the silence there’s release from a world full of chaos and noise.”

“The LORD is in his holy temple; silence before him, all the earth!” (Habbakuk 2:20).

“So, I wait for these precious moments when I hear all that could never be said.
And right here in this holy silence, I find God, I find myself.”

“Be still before the LORD; wait for God . …  Those at peace with God have a future . . . because in God they take refuge” (Psalm 37:7-40).

“In the silence, there is peace.  In the silence, there is unspoken joy.
In the silence, there’s release from a world full of chaos and noise.”

“He woke up, rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, ‘Quiet! Be still!’ The wind ceased and there was great calm” (Mark 4:39).

So I wait for these precious moments when I hear all that could never be said.
And right here, in this holy silence, I find God, I find myself.
