My heart calls out in the darkness
My tears frozen deep within
Trembling with an echo of prayer
In my shell of indignation

Sealing the truth from my lips
Before you I stand mute
Wishing I could connect the dots
Between how I feel and what I do

Guide my footsteps
From this war
Shield me from the chaos
Keep my foots at bay and lift me up

Raise my voice
Crash throught these waves
From this war, please Hashem
Lift me up today

Hollowed by a fire of self-contempt
Alone shivering on the floor
Sated by the venom of emptiness
Buried alive, my embers burn with faith inside

Stand tall in the face of these false gods
Masked in a voice of temptation
Shelter and conceal me from this fight

In this darkness, Hashem
You are my light

Guide my footsteps
From this war
Shield me from the chaos
Keep my foots at bay and lift me up

Raise my voice
Crash throught these waves
From this war, please Hashem
Lift me up today

Buried alive, my embers burn with faith inside
