What Do I Know of Holy?


"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... 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... 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 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? 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?"
