Not Enough Words

by Tommy Walker

Theology & Meaning

Sometimes grief leaves the believer without words; the Spirit intercedes with groans too deep for words, and the silence before God is itself a form of prayer.

Worship Leadership Tips

Works for grief services, memorial services, or any context where the congregation is beyond words. Allow extended silence.

Arrangement Tips

Very sparse. Piano only. Allow long silences. The absence of words is the point. Very few notes needed.
