Chosen family - I went to church to pray Lyrics

I went to the church to pray
With a heavy heart and a mind astray
The world outside felt so cold
But in that place I found my soul

I went to the church to pray
To find my peace, to find my way
With every word, with every tear
I felt His love, I felt Him here

The candles burned, the silence spoke
In that sacred space my chains broke
I laid my burdens at His feet
In that holy place I found my peace

I went to the church to pray
To find my peace, to find my way
With every word, with every tear
I felt His love, I felt Him here

Through every doubt, through every fear
His gentle voice was all I could hear
He said, my child, you're not alone
In this house you'll find your home

The morning light came shining through
A sign of hope, a life renewed
I walked out strong, I walked out free
For in His grace I found the key

I went to the church to pray
To find my peace, to find my way
With every word, with every tear
I felt His love, I felt Him here

I went to the church to pray
And now I know I'm here to stay
With every step, with every breath
I'll walk with Him, no fear of death
