In the Silence
Juanita Bynum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You’ll have me,
When I know you really don’t
I’m tired of telling you,
I’ll follow,
When I know I really won’t,
So I’d rather stand here speechless,
With no great words to say,
Then my ears can’t hear how to walk in your ways.
In the silence you are speaking,
In the quiet, I can fell the fire
And it’s burning , burning deeply,
I know that is that you desire to be silent, in me.
And oh Jesus can you hear me,
My soul is screaming out,
And this broken will cries teach me,
What your kingdom’s all about,
So you light my heart to fell you,
To feel your holy name,
Then create a live of worship,
In the spirit and truth of your loving ways.
In the silence you are speaking,
In the quiet, I can fell the fire,
And it’s burning, burning deeply,
I know that is that you desire to be silent,
In me, to be silent in me.
Too much noise in my soul oh god,
There’s too much noise in my soul oh god,
Too many voices in my soul oh god,
Gone, too many things in my soul oh god,
That’s not like you so burn it up, burn it up, burn it up oh god,
Burn it up, burn it up, burn it up,
Burn it up set it all on fire,
Burn it up, burn it up, burn it up, everything.
That’s fighting against your will in me,
Everything I don’t care what it is so god,
That’s fighting against your will in me,
God put it in your hand and burn it up
God put it in your hand and burn it up
Burn it up
Burn it up
Put it in your hand,
Set it on fire oh god.
Burn it up
Burn it up
Burn it up
The song "In The Silence" by Juanita Bynum is a conversation with God, in which the singer admits her frustrations and doubts as she tries to live up to God's expectations. In the first verse of the song, the singer expresses how tired she is of pretending to be someone she's not, just to please God. She admits that her words are not honest because she knows she won't follow through with them. Then she says that silence is more truthful than words, and the only way to truly walk in God's ways is to stop talking and start listening. The chorus emphasizes this idea with the repetition of the phrase "In the silence you are speaking," suggesting that God speaks loudest when we are quiet.
The next verse of the song continues the theme of the power of silence, with the singer describing how she feels God's presence most strongly when things are quiet. She says that the fire of God's love burns deeply, and that God desires to be silent within her. The bridge of the song is a cry for help from the singer, who admits that there is too much noise in her soul and too many things that are not of God. She asks God to burn away all that is not of Him, so that she can live a life of worship in the spirit and truth of God's loving ways.

You’ll have me,
When I know you really don’t
I am tired of making false promises to you, assuring you that you will have me, even though I know deep down that you won't.
I’m tired of telling you,
I’ll follow,
When I know I really won’t,
I am worn out from making fake commitments to follow you when I know very well that I won't.
So I’d rather stand here speechless,
With no great words to say,
Cause if my silence is more truthful,
Then my ears can’t hear how to walk in your ways.
Instead, I choose to remain silent because my words can be deceptive, and it's only through silence that I can truly understand how to follow your will.

And this broken will cries teach me,
What your kingdom’s all about,
Lord Jesus, can you hear me? My soul is in agony, and I am desperate for you to teach me what your kingdom is all about.
So you light my heart to fell you,
To feel your holy name,

In the spirit and truth of your loving ways.
Please enlighten my heart to feel you and to experience your holy name, so that I may live a life of worship, in spirit and truth, and follow your loving ways.

Burn it up
Burn it up
Put it in your hand,

Burn it up
Burn it up
Burn it up
Anything that goes against your will in me, I don't care what it is, Lord. Please take it and burn it all up. Put it in your hands and set it on fire. Burn it all up, completely.

People have said so many negative things about this woman but I'm no judge. All I know is that in my lowest time her music ministry delivered me from the jaws of death and still today I find her music to be so touching and so real! I love her and what she does on behalf of the Most High God. May Almighty God continue to bless her bountifully as she has done to others like me.

From one Intercessor to another, I agree 100%. The Father lead me to this song just in time for the new place He is moving my spirit (my life) to. As I listen to Juanita Bynum's worship, I can feel her ministering to the Intercessor within me. I spiritual love her and give all glory, honor, and praise to God for ministries!
@cokkochanel1
Praying for you Juanita, Where are the prayer warriors? Stand up! 🔥🔥🔥

We will never understand her "brokeneess" nor will we ever understand her place in God! As a child my mother's infamous words to me was, "just keep living!" As an adult, I now understand what she meant. So that we understand her ministering we must go through the "fire"...the same suffering Jesus had to go through before His crucifixion. So often we want the "promises" of God without going through the "process, pain, and persecution." When God prepares to elevate you to expand His kingdom's agenda. You must go through the process. Most often this process is very uncomfortable, lonely and isolated! Talk to David, Joseph, Moses, Paul and so many others. Until God has taken you through the process, it's fair to pray for her and not judge where she is and how she got there! Be encouraged!
