Acclaimed singer, songwriter and author Audrey Assad has released a new single "Shiloh." This new song is a poem about how God brings about healing in the midst of grief. Take a listen at this beautiful ballad below.
Lauded by the New York Times, multiple Dove Award nominee and iTunes Christian Breakthrough Album of the Year recipient (The House You're Building, 2010) Assad releases music she calls "soundtracks for prayer" on Fortunate Fall Records. In addition to her top-charting albums, Audrey speaks about art, faith, womanhood, justice and pornography addiction at Catholic and evangelical events such as Q Ideas, Focus Conferences and more. She has written songs for Matt Maher, Christy Nockels, Brett Younker, Sarah Hart, Meredith Andrews and others, is featured on Chris Tomlin's RIAA certified Gold record, Glory in the Highest (2009), and her cover of Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" is heard in the fall 2016 season opener of NBC's Timeless.
Having toured with Tenth Avenue North, Matt Maher, Jars of Clay and others, Audrey has further been featured at World Youth Day 2016 (Poland), Mass at St Patrick's Cathedral and during the Papal Event "World Meeting of Families." She also writes reflective and devotional entries for the likes of Christianity Today, the Magnificat and Blessed is She.
Lyrics of "Shiloh:"
Deep down your eyes look
Haunted by grey ghosts
You live in your stories
Hunted by shadows
When pain comes to show you
What you'd rather not know
What will your heart do?
What will you let go?
May loving kindness
Calm the raging of the wound
May your healing
Be a clearing in the wood
May you breathe in
Deeper than you ever could before
See what you've lived through
So you can grieve it
And draw it towards you
Catch and release it
And now as your tears flow
Let them be cleansing
Washing your heart so
You can be mending
May loving kindness
Calm the raging of the wound
May your healing
Be a clearing in the wood
May you breathe in
Deeper than you ever could before
In every season
For every seed there's a time to grow
A time to grow through yesterday's curtains
Maybe you'll open a window, a window
So everything broken
Everything bleeding
Can be made whole
Can be made whole
Where everything shattered
Baby, you'll find your Shiloh
Your Shiloh
May loving kindness
Calm the raging of the wound
May your healing
Be a clearing in the wood
May you breathe in
Deeper than you ever could before
