I have a longing to spend more time
In places of silence where I can find
Peace for my soul, rest for my mind
Escape the madness of life
Oh I need a sanctuary
Where I can just be, where I can find peace
Patiently wait in the silence and listen
And hear what You're trying to say to me
And I have been weary, I have felt weak
And I know these burdens belong at Your feet
When will I lay down, when can I sleep,
And rest in Your love for me?
Oh I need a sanctuary
Where I can just be, where I can find peace
Patiently wait in the silence and listen
And hear what You're trying to say to me
Why, why, why
Can it be so hard to find
Peace for my soul, rest in this life
A moment where all seems right
Oh I need a sanctuary
Where I can just breathe, where I can find peace
Patiently wait in the silence and listen
And hear what You're trying to say to me
I need a sanctuary
Where I can just be, where I can find peace
Patiently wait in the silence and listen
And hear what You're trying to say to me
