Your Name

Valleyheart


Become who you are, got a head start to going nowhere
The rush of our youth, now we'd do anything to go back
At least I would
Took a nap on your bed
Oh, the weight of your breath made me quiver
Took off my shoes ’cause I knew
That intentions aren't easy to hide

So we sat on your couch
Pleading the Lord to cleanse our bodies
But we laughed as we prayed
We couldn't honestly say your name

Seven years old now at my mom’s church
And the pastor, he rants of revival
He points to the ceiling, he says there's a cloud there
That's embodied the form of the spirit

So I sit in my pew
Squinting my eyes to make sense of the teaching
But that little boy that prayed
He didn't see a cloud that day

Now on my bathroom floor
I speak to the Lord in simple tongue
It's getting harder every day
To honestly say your name, name

It won't come out the same
That holy and righteous name
