Tim Leland - God Fell Silent Lyrics

When I was young, I'd go to church on Sundays
Even went to youth group on Wednesdays
Became a counselor at the church camp I was raised in Spent all my days doing nothing but praise Him
I never even thought about it twice
Because my life right then was oh so nice
Call it faith or call it blindness
But in my heart I always knew I'd find Him

I knew that the trials in life wouldn't last forever
And I knew the company I kept defined me
And I knew that God would always be there for me
And in my mind I didn't have a doubt
Because I knew God loved me and He would help me out

Lost six of my best friends in three months time
Lived in my car in Kansas City for a while
Met my dad after 18 years who did another crime
Went back for life and I acted like everything was fine
I never even thought about it twice
Because my life right before this was oh so nice
Call it faith or call it blindness
Looked in my heart because I thought I'd find Him

I think I know the trials in life won't last forever
I think I know the company I keep defines me
I think I know that God will always be there for me
But like Thomas I was having doubt
And I hoped God loved me and He would help me out

Make one mistake and watch your friends and family leave
When you needed them most they ran and fleed
No one cared about me
I was stuck in a cycle of finding who I was supposed to be
Call it destiny or call it fate This is who I've become and now it's way too late

Now I know the trials in life they last forever
Now I know the company I keep doesn't define me
Now I know that God will never be there for me
Now I know the trials in life they last forever
Now I know the company I keep doesn't define me
Now I know that God will never be there for me
Because right when I needed Him most I'd shout But God fell silent when I cried out
