You are Here Worship Carrie Heart

[Verse 1]
I was drowning in my doubts
Heart so heavy I could barely speak
All the questions in my mouth
Like a weight pulling down so deep
But You found me in the silence
In the space between my fear and faith
You were standing in the middle
You were singing over all my shame

[Pre-Chorus]
I thought I had to climb my way up
You were running
Running to me (running to me)
I thought I had to earn Your favor
You were holding out Your arms in peace

[Chorus]
You are closer than my breathing
You are here
You are here
You are here
Every valley
Every season
You are here
You are here
You are here
Jesus
Only You
Name above everything I feel
You are closer than my breathing
You are here
You are here
You are here

[Verse 2]
In the hospital at midnight
In the breakup on the kitchen floor
In the fire
In the sirens
In the quiet of an unlocked door
Every heartbeat
Every heartache
Every hidden
Unspoken tear
You don’t turn away from weakness
You come running right into our fear

[Pre-Chorus]
I thought I had to fix my failure
You were saying
“Child
Just come home” (just come home)
I thought I had to hide my story
You were turning every scar to gold

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
[low vocal register] When I say “Jesus” [soft gang vocals answer: “Jesus”]
Mountains move
Chains fall
When I say “Savior” [answer: “Savior”]
Every wall
It cracks and crawls
When I say “Holy” [answer: “Holy”]
All of heaven sings with me
[build] When we say “Jesus” [gang vocals: “Jesus”]
We see captives set free

[Chorus]
