It's My Turn To Speak

Story Behind The Song

Lyrics

You ask Me to show you which way to go.
And I tell you to keep seeking My face, and you'll know.
What you want from Me is often not what you get, My child.
You ask Me to tell you all the details in life.
And I tell you to keep searching, and you'll turn out just fine.
What you need from Me is always just what you get, My child.

Seek My face, not just in this place;
I'm not your "answer man."
Read My word; I think it's quite absurd
that you would guess until you get it right.
Hear My voice, 'cause it's your choice
to lay down your life, My child.

Be still and get quiet; it's My turn to speak.
Come quickly near to Me with your humility.
Let me have that pride; I'll take away your fears, My child.
Now that you're here with Me, let Me love you a while.
And I promise when you go, you'll have more than a smile.
What you get from Me is peace like nothing else, My child.

Seek My face, not just in this place;
I'm not your "answer man."
Read My word; I think it's quite absurd
that you would guess until you get it right.
Hear My voice, 'cause it's your choice
to lay down your life, My child.

What you need from Me is always just what you get.
Let me have that pride; I'll take away your fears.
What you get from Me is peace like nothing else, My child.
