Song Lyrics

---

I reach out my hand
But there’s no one there
To hold onto mine
I close my eyes
Holding back tears
I won’t cry this time
No one would see me anyway
And it’s just another day

This is my solitude
This is the life I know
There’s no one here
But I’m never alone
‘Cause the quiet is not silence
I’m here with You
Lord, in my solitude

If everyone’s lonely
Then I don’t understand
Why no one lets me in
I reach out in vain
Despite my fears
Of being hurt again
‘Cause I don’t know what to say
But it’s just another day

This is my solitude
This is the life I know
There’s no one here
But I’m never alone
‘Cause the quiet is not silence
I’m here with You
Lord, in my solitude

And I know that it’s Your love in me
That keeps me reaching out
I find myself moved by Your mercy
Despite all of my doubts
Every moment You move my soul to pray
Now I know that You’re with me every day

This is my solitude
This is the life I know
There’s no one here
But I’m never alone
‘Cause the quiet is not silence
I’m here with You
Lord, in my solitude

Matthew 28:19-20 "Go to the people of all nations and make them my disciples. Baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teach them to do everything I have told you. I will be with you always, even until the end of the world."
