Your house is silent, Lord
But You still hear my cry
I taught him how to pray
Before he learned goodbye
The road pulled him away
From truth, from home, from me
But Your word says the lost
Are never out of reach
I still wait, my son
With the lamp burning bright
Like the father on the road
Every sleepless night
My body’s growing weaker
But my faith stands tall
You promised what is lost
Will answer to Your call
Even if my eyes don’t see the end
I trust You, God
I’ll see my son again
.......♫♪ ♫♪ ♫♪......
My hair is thinning now
The mirror shows the years
Each step is getting hard
Still I kneel in tears
I read Your promises
By a fading candle flame
I speak his name to You
You never turn away
If I don’t walk the road
To meet him face to face
Let my final breath
Still rest inside Your grace
I still wait, my son
With the lamp burning bright
Like the father on the road
Every sleepless night
My body’s growing weaker
But my faith stands tall
You promised what was lost
Will answer to Your call
Even if my eyes don’t see the end
I trust You, God
I’ll see my son again
The door stays open
Your mercy still runs wide...
