Paroles
Verse 1
I’ve walked through nights where faith felt hollow,
Where every prayer fell to the floor.
But still, You waited in the shadows,
Till I could find You once more.
You never needed my perfection,
You just wanted all of me.
And in the cracks of my confession,
Your mercy poured like melody.
Pre-Chorus
When I am weak and I am small,
Your whisper stills it all.
Chorus
You are closer than my heartbeat,
Softer than the morning light.
You are the song inside my silence,
The hand that holds my fight.
You are love that never leaves me,
Even when I fall apart.
Oh God, You are the truth that breathes me —
Closer than my heartbeat, closer than my heart.
Verse 2
I’ve been the storm and I’ve been the doubter,
But You never called me less.
You saw the beauty in my breaking,
And met me in my mess.
Your grace — it doesn’t shout or thunder,
It hums a lullaby instead.
You heal the fear that no one sees,
And write new dreams where pain has bled.
Pre-Chorus
You turn my tears into refrain,
And sing through every ache and pain.
Chorus
You are closer than my heartbeat,
Softer than the morning light.
You are the song inside my silence,
The hand that holds my fight.
You are love that never leaves me,
Even when I fall apart.
Oh God, You are the truth that breathes me —
Closer than my heartbeat, closer than my heart.
Bridge
I’ve searched for peace in empty places,
Chased joy that always fades.
But You are peace that never leaves me,
The stillness in my veins.
When I have nothing left to offer,
Still You call me Yours by name.
You are my now, my ever after —
My wildest love, my gentle flame.
Final Chorus (soaring, tearful)
You are closer than my heartbeat,
Softer than the morning light.
You are the song inside my silence,
The hand that holds my fight.
Even when the world forgets me,
You remember who I am.
Oh God, You are the breath within me —
Closer than my heartbeat,
Closer than I am.
Outro (whisper)
Closer than my heartbeat…
Jesus, closer than I am.
I’ve walked through nights where faith felt hollow,
Where every prayer fell to the floor.
But still, You waited in the shadows,
Till I could find You once more.
You never needed my perfection,
You just wanted all of me.
And in the cracks of my confession,
Your mercy poured like melody.
Pre-Chorus
When I am weak and I am small,
Your whisper stills it all.
Chorus
You are closer than my heartbeat,
Softer than the morning light.

The hand that holds my fight.
You are love that never leaves me,
Even when I fall apart.

Closer than my heartbeat, closer than my heart.
