Living With Silence

Verse 1
I’ve been learning how to listen
To the spaces in between,
Where the world grows soft and holy
And the heart becomes serene.
There’s a doorway made of stillness
Where the ancient truths arise—
Silence opens like a temple
In the center of the mind.
Chorus
Living with silence,
Living with grace,
Letting the eternal
Speak into this place.
Silence isn’t empty,
It’s the fullness we forgot—
Where the soul becomes audible
And remembers what it sought.
Living with silence…
Living with God.
Verse 2
In the hush beneath the thinking,
In the breath beneath the fear,
There’s a guidance always waiting,
Soft and steady, ever near.
Not a voice that shouts or trembles,
Not a thunder from above—
Just a presence made of knowing,
Just a whisper shaped like love.
Chorus
Living with silence,
Living with grace,
Letting the eternal
Speak into this place.
Silence isn’t empty,
It’s the fullness we forgot—
Where the soul becomes audible
And remembers what it sought.
Living with silence…
Living with God.
Bridge
Oh, the quiet is a teacher,
Oh, the stillness is a friend.
Every time I enter gently,
Something broken starts to mend.
Silence is the soul’s own memory,
Silence is the ancient hymn—
Calling me back to the origin,
Calling me home again.
Final Chorus
Living with silence,
Living with grace,
Letting the eternal
Speak into this place.
Silence isn’t empty,
It’s the fullness we forgot—
Where the soul becomes audible
And remembers what it sought.
Living with silence…
Living with God.
Outro
So I walk with quiet footsteps,
Let the noise fall from my skin.
Every moment holds a doorway
If I’m willing to go in.
