How Do I Tell Him? | Before the World Knew His Name (Track 3) - Cinematic Christian Song

How Do I Tell Him? | Before the World Knew His Name — Track 03 What happens when you receive a promise from heaven, but still have to face the people on earth? Mary's life is about to change forever. After the angel announces that she will bear the Son of God, she faces a question that the miracle itself cannot answer: how will Joseph believe her? She has accepted God's calling, but she cannot control what happens next. She cannot predict how Joseph will respond, what her community will think, or how the future she imagined will unfold. How Do I Tell Him? is an imagined emotional portrait of Mary after the Annunciation — a cinematic alternative-soul song about faith, vulnerability, and the courage to trust when the consequences remain unknown. Sometimes faith doesn't mean having all the answers. Sometimes it means taking the next step without knowing what the answer will be. *LYRICS — HOW DO I TELL HIM?* The room is still, the light has changed Nothing here will be the same A thousand thoughts I cannot name And nothing left to rearrange Heaven spoke, and I believed But there's a price I cannot see A promise resting in my hands A future I don't understand You said that I need not be afraid But what of all the words I'll have to say? How do I tell him? How do I look into his eyes? How do I tell him There's a truth he won't recognise? I have said yes to heaven But I don't know what comes after How do I tell him? How do I ask him to believe? He knows the dreams we used to share The little life we planned to build What happens to the life we knew When every road leads somewhere new? Will he see the truth in me? Or only what he thinks he sees? I have no proof that I can give Only this word I have to live You said the child would be Your own But how do I face this world alone? How do I tell him? How do I look into his eyes? How do I tell him There's a truth he won't recognise? I have said yes to heaven But I don't know what comes after How do I tell him? How do I ask him to believe? Let them question, let them stare Let them say I brought disgrace I can bear the weight of their words But I fear the hurt upon his face If this is where Your promise leads Give me the strength to stand and speak I do not know what he will do But, Lord, I'll place my trust in You How do I tell him? With all the fear I cannot hide How do I tell him That heaven has changed our lives? I have said yes to heaven Though I cannot see hereafter How do I tell him? And trust You with the answer? I have said yes... I have said yes... — ABOUT THE ALBUM Before the World Knew His Name is a nine-song cinematic Christian concept album exploring the story of Mary, Joseph, and the early life of Jesus through the imagined emotional perspectives of the people who lived it.
