Lyrics: [Verse 1] I hid my face from the light of day,

Ashamed of the words I could not pray.

My heart was restless, my hands unclean,

Afraid of the judgment for what has been.

[Chorus 1]

When the Books of Life and Death are read,

I tremble at the words unsaid.

Don’t turn away, don’t let me fall,

I’m still Your child, despite it all.

[Verse 2]

I cast aside the chains I wore,

The empty songs, the thirst for more.

Step by step, I walk back home,

A fragile will, but not alone.

[Chorus 2]

When the Books of Life and Death are read,

Remember how I turned instead.

Lift me higher, set me free Invest Your hope,

Hashem, in me.

Instrumental interlude: guitar tremolo, faint cello]

[Verse 3]

Now love, not fear, is what I bring,

To do Your will in everything.

My joy is found in serving You,

Your world restored in all I do.

[Chorus 3]

When the Books of Life and Death are read,

Write me in with the ones who’ve said:

“I live to do what You desire,

To spread Your light, to lift You higher.”

[Coda] Write me in… Write me near… Your child returns…

This year, this year.
