From This War

My heart calls out in the darkness
My tears frozen deep within
Trembling with an echo of prayer
In my shell of indignation
Sealing the truth from my lips
Before You I stand mute
Wishing I could connect the dots
Between how I feel and what I do

Guide my footsteps
From this war
Shield me from the chaos
Keep my foes at bay
And lift me up
Raise my voice
Crash through these waves
From this war
Please Hashem
Lift me up today

Hollowed by a fire of self-contempt
Alone shivering on the floor
Sated by the venom of emptiness
Buried alive
My embers burn with faith inside
Stand tall in the face of these false gods
Masked in a voice of temptation
Shelter and conceal me from this fight
In this darkness Hashem
You are my light

Guide my footsteps
From this war
Shield me from the chaos
Keep my foes at bay
And lift me up
Raise my voice
Crash through these waves
From this war
Please Hashem
Lift me up today
