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, 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 mighty 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 "its" 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?

What do I know of Holy?



What a beautiful song. It really spoke to me today.... Ryan and I are currently reading "Not a Fan" and it kind of goes right along with the core of that message- am I a FAN or FOLLOWER? WHAT DO I REALLY KNOW OF HOLY?

My heart and soul longs to know more of my Savior and is in a constant battle with my flesh who often gets consumed in this world. "Then I caught a glimpse of who You might be & the slightest hint of You brought me down to my knees"... If we would only open our hearts & eyes to who our Savior truly is and let Him reveal Himself to us, WE WOULD BE MOVED. WE WOULD BE CHANGED. And when I say "we", I am talking to myself more than anything.....

"How can I stand here with You & not be moved by You?" -Lifehouse
