A glimpse of who You might be



What do I know of Holy? [Addison Road]

I made You promises a thousand times,
I tried to hear from Heaven, but I talked the whole time.
I think I made You too small. I never feared You at all. No.
If You touched my face, would I know You?
Looked into my eyes, could I behold You?

What do I know of You, who spoke me into motion?
Where have I even stood, but the shore along Your ocean?
Are You fire? Are You fury? Are You sacred? Are you beautiful?
What do I know? What do I know of Holy?

I guess I thought that I had figured You out.
I knew all the stories and I learned to talk about
How You were might to save.
But those were only empty words on a page.
Then I caught a glimpse of who You might be.
The slightest hint of You brought me down to my knees.

What do I know of You, who spoke me into motion?
Where have I even stood, but the shore along Your ocean?
Are You fire? Are You fury? Are You sacred? Are you beautiful?
What do I know? What do I know of Holy?

What do I know of Holy? What do I know of wounds that will heal my shame?
And a God who gave life it's name?
What do I know of Holy? Of the One who the angels praise?
All creation knows Your name, on earth and heaven above, what do I know of this Love?

So what do I know of You, who spoke me into motion?
Where have I even stood, but the shore along Your ocean?
Are You fire? Are You fury? Are You sacred? Are you beautiful?
Lord, what do I know? What do I know of Holy? What do I know of Holy? What do I know of Holy?

Wow! combinaţia cuvinte-muzică de la 2:45 are o forţă de sugestie cum rar am întâlnit! Parcă vezi un semn imens de întrebare izbucnind...de undeva, din mare (ca să rămânem la tema clipului). Voce pregnantă, versuri de mare onestitate. Thanks for sharing :)
