Stay with me (song series)

I will wait for you to come.  I need you to hold me near and stay with me.

When words are not needed, and we just need His presence. When the yearning is too deep and cannot be denied, we ache for comfort.  We will be refined.  We will go through hardships.  We will be loved and known and we will make it through. 

Through these words may you just sit and reflect and fall in love with our Savior more and more as we continue to understand that we are His children and He wants us to come to Him as the needy ones we are.  We were created to be complete through Him.  We will never be whole apart from Him. 

I had the joy of writing this song with the help of David Halvorson creating the guitar backbone for this piece and the addition of Tim Painter to add a few more accents.  Thank you, guys, for lending me your gifts!

Stay with me

Becki J. Buescher David Halvorson

Awaken hunger deep inside

No heart of stone could ever hide

Instill a hope I can’t deny

Find me waiting

Refine me in these flames

Though trials come, find me changed

Cause mournful eyes to smile again

With joy to triumph in the end

I will wait for you to come

I need you to hold me near

And stay with me

Fill me with joyful song

when sorrow tries to pull me down

No wallowing in misery

I choose to rise against defeat

I will rest here in your arms

just carry me when all else harms

no matter what lies up ahead

just hide me in your heart
