Silently

Silently I told the Lord Of the heavy heart I've borne, Then you appeared, offering your love, My prayer of thanks I've outworn Silently I told a dove Why I'm singing all day long, You, my love, taught me all the words To my hallelujah song Silently I told the sun, To him I revealed your name, A burning passion I dared share With the keeper of the flame Silently I had to shout To the mountains and the streams, I told them of my love for you, How you came to share my dreams Silently I sang my song, All my love for you expressed, Though I know no one heard a word, I feel like I have confessed Silently you brought your love Like a bouquet to my heart, I heard the choir's divine Amen, Watching solitude depart Silently we share our love, Our vows in silence spoken, How long the wait, yearning until Our silence can be broken
