Lyrics

Divine Whisper

Verse 1

In the stillness of Your presence,
I wait, hushed and expectant.
Softly You speak, a gentle essence,
Divine whisper, heaven-sent.

Pre-Chorus

In every gentle breeze, in the rustling leaves,
In the quiet, Your voice I perceive.

Chorus

Divine whisper, in the silence loud,
In Your words, my soul is found.
A quiet murmur, yet clear and profound,
In Your whisper, Your love is bound.

Verse 2

Like Elijah on the mount,
Seeking You, where You’re found.
Not in tempest, fire, or ground,
But in whispers, You abound.

Pre-Chorus

In the calm of the dawn, in the evening’s song,
In Your whispers, I am strong.

Chorus

Divine whisper, guiding me true,
In subtle echoes, I hear You.
A gentle nudge, a soft pursue,
In Your whispers, I am renewed.

Bridge

In the whispers, Your mysteries unfold,
In gentle tones, Your plans told.
A sacred secret, in my heart I hold,
Divine whisper, more precious than gold.

Chorus

Divine whisper, in the still of night,
In Your quiet, I find light.
A tender word, in the faintest sight,
In Your whisper, my faith takes flight.

Outro

In the whispers, Your heart I hear,
Divine whisper, ever near.
