The thing I want is only in your presence”

Shalom

Verse 1
I had so many questions how
To fill my hearts desire
And traded all my peace to find the answers
I’m constantly exhausted
By the racing of this life
But once I stop and wait and let you enter

Chorus 1
There’s Shalom
Shalom
The place where my heart finally feels home Shalom

Verse 2
Your kindness is an ointment
That mends and makes me whole
But somehow I’m ashamed to say I’m hurting
Your presence like an ocean to
The desert of my soul
But the moment I admit that I am thirsty

Chorus 2
There’s Shalom
Shalom
The place where my heart finally feels home Shalom
Shalom
No matter what I feel (seems) is going wrong
In spite of all the questions
Still I know There’s shalom

Bridge
A peace within the turbulence
A fathers strength a mothers kiss
I never have to question its intention
The safety of a faithful friend
The comfort of a lovers hand
That calms my heart with intimate affection
I see it in the green of spring
I hear it when my children sing
I feel it in a melodies expression
I’ve searched so many years and miles
And finally come to realize
The thing I want is only in your presence
