When You Spoke My Name Lyrics

When I first spoke your name
I used it like a blade
Cutting sharp a mask to hide the pain
When I first spoke your name

When I next spoke your name
I could no longer bear the weight
Of years hiding behind the ache
When I next spoke your name

But when you spoke my name
Oh, I swear the angels sang
Peace came and stole my shame
When you spoke my name

Now when I speak your name
I sing it like a sweet refrain
I have found a peace I can't explain
When I speak your name

'Cause when you spoke my name
Oh, I swear the angels sang
Peace came and stole my shame
When you spoke my name

I can hardly speak
Knowing you know me
Thank God I'm free
Now my world has completely come undone
For I can hear the son
Calling out to me

'Cause when you spoke my name
Oh, I swear the angels sang
Peace came and stole my shame
When you spoke my name
Oh, I swear the angels sang
Peace came and stole my shame
When you spoke my name
