Hold My Hand

Heard this song today on my iPod and thought it was a good play off of the previous post of Psalm 13.  It's by my latest favorite band, Tenth Avenue North.

How long must I pray, must I pray to You? 
How long must I wait, must I wait for You? 
How long 'til I see Your face, see You shining through? 
I'm on my knees, begging You to notice me.
I'm on my knees, Father will you turn to me? 

One tear in the dropping rain, 
One voice in the sea of pain
Could the maker of the stars
Hear the sound of my breakin' heart? 
One light, that's all I am
Right now I can barely stand
If You're everything You say You are
Won't You come close and hold my heart

I've been so afraid, afraid to close my eyes
So much can slip away before I say goodbye.
But if there's no other way, I'm done asking why.
Cuz I'm on my knees, begging You to turn to me
I'm on my knees, Father will you run to me? 

One tear in the dropping rain, 
One voice in the sea of pain
Could the maker of the stars
Hear the sound of my breakin' heart? 
One light, that's all I am
Right now I can barely stand
If You're everything You say You are
Won't You come close and hold my heart.

So many questions without answers, Your promises remain
I can't sleep but I'll take my chances to hear You call my name
To hear You call my name

One tear in the dropping rain, 
One voice in the sea of pain
Could the maker of the stars
Hear the sound of my breakin' heart? 
One light, that's all I am
Right now I can barely stand
If You're everything You say You are
Won't You come close and hold my heart.

Hold my heart, could you hold my heart? 
Hold my heart.

I like tenth avenue north too. But I have to wait until the next loan check comes in to buy the cd. I have a running list of cds to get... it's pretty sad. I have an addiction.
