Making Room for Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I brought my questions to the kitchen table Set them beside the bills and yesterday's bread You met me there before I had an answer Put steady kindness back inside my chest The morning train was late, the rain came sideways Still I felt a quiet hand upon my shoulder What I called lost was only being gathered What I called finished had a little further [Pre-Chorus] When my courage gets thin You begin again [Chorus] You keep making room for me When I can barely stand You turn a narrow doorway Into a promised land I lift my voice with grateful hands For every place You carried me You keep making room for me You keep making room for me [Verse 2] My sister called from the hospital parking lot Her voice was small beneath the fluorescent hum We prayed between the vending machine and midnight And watched the fear loosen, one breath at a time No grand parade, no perfect explanation Just faithful mercy showing up on cue A violin of hope across the silence And every trembling note came back as truth [Pre-Chorus] When my courage gets thin You begin again [Chorus] You keep making room for me When I can barely stand You turn a narrow doorway Into a promised land I lift my voice with grateful hands For every place You carried me You keep making room for me You keep making room for me [Bridge] Choir, sing it softly I am not forgotten Choir, sing it stronger I am still being formed Through the empty places Through the open questions Love has never left me Love has brought me home [Final Chorus] You keep making room for me Wider than I dreamed You turn my tired hallelujah Into a living stream I lift my voice with grateful hands For every place You carried me You keep making room for me You keep making room for me [Outro] Here at the table, here in the morning Your grace is enough for me
