Death Steals in Silence (Sophie's Song).

You are good, ever faithful

Present help, in my desperate time of need

Gracious, merciful, I will ever tell my soul to believe

You have a perfect plan

Your ways are higher, but my heart does not understand

I’m asking you to use me

When it hurts to trust your will

Take my anguish in your hands, use this bitter, suffering

For your glory, for your fame

You are good

Ever Faithful

My arms will always long to hold her

But my heart can cry out praise

You love her more than I could ever fathom

In your presence she knows no suffering

You have made her new

My heart’s greatest desire

Was that she would come to know you deeply

And in your great loving, mercy

You took her straight into your arms

This broken heart starts to question

When I can’t hold her in my arms

Or see her before my eyes

But my soul proclaims your truth

And you are drawing me closer to you

These ashes are not the end

Death will not steal with silence

Your praises flow from my lips

This pain will not cast a shadow

On the beauty of your face

My heart is overwhelmed

But you have overcome

You know this pain as your own

And I have come to know you deeper

To love you more IN this suffering

I don’t pretend to understand

But I can trust my life in your hands

There is no better place to cry out

You are ever the rock on which my soul stands
