V1
I had so many questions how to fill my heart's desire
And traded all my peace to find the answers.
I'm constantly exhausted by the racing of this life,
But once I stop and wait and let You enter
C1
There's shalom, shalom.
The place where my heart finally feels home.
V2
Your kindness is anointment that mends and makes me whole,
But somehow I'm ashamed to say I'm hurting.
Your presence like an ocean to the desert of my soul,
But the moment I admit that I am thirsty
C2
There's shalom, shalom.
The place where my heart finally feels home.
Shalom, shalom,
No matter what I feel is going wrong,
In spite of all the questions still I know.
B1
A peace within the turbulence,
A father's strength, a mother's kiss,
I never have to question its intention.
The safety of a faithful friend,
The comfort of a lover's hand,
That calms my heart with intimate affection.
B2
I see it in the green of Spring.
I hear it when my children sing.
I feel it in a melody's expression.
I've searched so many years and miles
And finally come to realize
The thing I want is only in Your presence.
C3
There's shalom, shalom.
The place where my heart finally feels home.
Shalom, shalom,
No matter what I feel is going wrong,
In spite of all the questions still I know.
