No Vacancy by Melodie Yvonne

Sometimes this house just swallows me whole
It’s so hard to see that I’m not alone
But then those words whisper in my ear
You don’t have to fear child I’m always here

Just live and let go and rely on your faith
Just dream and be kind and believe in your fate
But all these cruel noises just keep getting’ louder
And drown out my savior with their endless chatter

Then once again this house swallows me whole
It’s so hard to see that I’m not alone
But quickly those words whisper in my ear
You don’t have to fear child I’m always here

All of my doubts make it harder to listen
All of my fears try to derail my mission
How can I just trust another to save me
When I’ve sinned so much against He who has made me

Then once again this house swallows me whole
It’s so hard to see that I’m not alone
But then those words whisper in my ear
You don’t have to fear child I’m always here

You don’t have to fear child I’m always here
Let go of your panic, let go of your fear
Trust in the spirit and He will be with you
You’re never alone ‘cause he’s right here within you

Sometimes this house just swallows me whole
It’s so hard to see that I’m not alone
But then those sweet words whisper in my ear
You don’t have to fear child I’m always here
