"Whispers of Eternity" – Psalm 39
Verse 1:
I said, "I will watch my ways,
so that I do not sin with my tongue;
I will keep a muzzle on my mouth
while in the presence of the wicked."
But when I was silent and still,
my anguish grew.
Chorus:
Whispers of eternity call out to me
Silent yet so powerful, they set me free
In the midst of my pain and suffering
I find peace in the whispers of eternity
Verse 2:
My heart grew hot within me,
as I meditated, the fire burned;
Then I spoke with my tongue:
"Make me know my end, O Lord,
and what is the measure of my days;
let me know how fleeting my life is.
Chorus:
Whispers of eternity call out to me
Silent yet so powerful, they set me free
In the midst of my pain and suffering
I find peace in the whispers of eternity
Verse 3:
Behold, you have made my days a few handbreadths,
and my lifetime is as nothing before you;
Surely all mankind stands as a mere breath!
Surely a man goes about as a shadow!
Surely for nothing they are in turmoil;
Chorus:
Whispers of eternity call out to me
Silent yet so powerful, they set me free
In the midst of my pain and suffering
I find peace in the whispers of eternity
Verse 4:
"And now, O Lord, for what do I wait?
My hope is in you.
Deliver me from all my transgressions.
Do not make me the scorn of the fool!"
Chorus:
Whispers of eternity call out to me
Silent yet so powerful, they set me free
In the midst of my pain and suffering
I find peace in the whispers of eternity
Outro:
Whispers of eternity call out to me
I find peace in the whispers of eternity.
