Usually when I hear a song or verse that speaks to me I pick out what did and then write about it. That's what lead to His Name... which has a fairly clear connection to Isaiah 9:6. Something my pastor said became the last verse of Rightful Place, everything else grew from that verse.
Last night, the last song we sang was one I had not heard before. It stood out to me in its entirety, fitting well with what I've been feeling of late. I don't have anything to add, so would rather just share the song with you. It is by Tim Hughes and I believe comes from his album When Silence Falls.

When the Tears Fall
I've had questions without answers
I've known sorrow, I have known pain
But there's one thing that I cling to
You are faithful, Jesus You're true
When hope is lost, I call You Saviour
When pain surrounds, I call You Healer
When silence falls,
You'll be the song within my heart
In the lone hour of my sorrow
Through the darkest night of my soul
You surround me, You sustain me
My defender for ever more
When hope is lost, I call You Saviour
When pain surrounds, I call You Healer
When silence falls,
You'll be the song within my heart
And I will praise You
I will Praise You
When the tears fall
Still I will sing to You
I will praise You
Jesus praise You
Through the suffering
Still I will sing to You
When hope is lost, I call You Saviour
When pain surrounds, I call You Healer
When silence falls,
You'll be the song within my heart
I will praise You
I will praise You
When the tears fall
Still I will sing to you
I will praise You
Jesus I will praise You
Through the suffering
Still I will sing to you
When the laughter fails to comfort
When my heart aches, Lord You'll be there
When confusion is all around me
And the darkness is my closest friend
Still I'll praise You
Jesus praise You

Cares and Trust
Stable life, controlled
Life. Unstable? Learn to trust;
Control not of me.
These things are God's things
Mine to care for while on loan;
Worry, His burden.

Bad Days
Leaky world darkens
My sunny days. Let me learn,
With praise, not complaint.
Lord, teach me to trust in You.
To know You will work this out.

Why do we call You ...?
Lord, the Sovereign one.
My life is no longer mine,
You are my ruler.
God, The Creator.
Perfect, All-knowing, Righteous;
You deserve all praise.
Jesus, my best friend.
You are with me forever,
Sharing joy and pains.

Wish to call You Lord.
Renew in me a clean heart,
So I will seek you.
Fill me with righteous desire,
I want my life to bless You.
Your glory abounds,
The universe proclaims You.
All nature worships
With beauty You created.
How can I not offer praise!
