When I first spoke Your name
I used it like a blade
Cutting and sharp
A mask to hide the pain - when I first spoke Your name
When I next spoke Your name
I could no longer bear the weight
Of years hiding behind the ache - when I next spoke Your name
But when You spoke my name
Oh I swear the angels sang
Peace came and stole my shame
when You spoke my name
Now when I speak Your name
I sing it like a sweet refrain
No longer curse You for You broke my chains - I sing Your name
I used it like a blade
Cutting and sharp
A mask to hide the pain - when I first spoke Your name
When I next spoke Your name
I could no longer bear the weight
Of years hiding behind the ache - when I next spoke Your name
But when You spoke my name
Oh I swear the angels sang
Peace came and stole my shame
when You spoke my name
Now when I speak Your name
I sing it like a sweet refrain
No longer curse You for You broke my chains - I sing Your name
This post especially for Brett. May you be moved to sing the Name today.
*Sing Your Name from the disc "Broken" by Joel Hanson.
