Closer Than My Breath

You're the air in my lungs at dawn
The quiet in the breaking still
The pulse beneath the racing heart
The calm within the breathless thrill
You're the whisper in the silent room
The echo in the deepest prayer
A presence no distance can erase
The soul's first language always there
Oh let me feel your nearness
In the chaos in the calm
The rhythm of my blood my breath
The light that never dims you are closer than my breath
The shadow and the sun
A love that's woven in my veins
The first last begun
You are the light that guides me home
The hand that pulls me through the storm
A love that's deeper than the night
Fire in the hollows of my fall
Your song in the rustling trees
A lullaby for restless nights
A thread through every tangled choice
A song that mends the broken sight
That calls the wanderer
The bond for every scar I bear
A psalm of mercy steadfast mirror
The dawn I've sought to draw me near
Oh let me feel your nearness
In the chaos in the calm
The rhythm of my blood my breath
The light that never dims
You are the life that guides me home
The hand that pulls me through the storm
A love that's deeper than the night
A fire in the hollows of my fall
In the silence you're all
In the chaos you're calm
A river that never ceases
A name I'll forever name
Oh closer than my breath
Your song is my song
And every breath and every step
You're the home where I belong
