what do i know?

tired-

of hearing my own words,
or those of everyone else...

everyone but You.
this is my prayer tonight:

i made You promises a thousand times
i try to hear from Heaven but i TALK 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?
so 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 & i learned to talk about
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

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?
so 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
honored in 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?
oh, oh WHAT DO I KNOW...
OF HOLY?

i will NEVER know enough to fully understand You-
Your greatness
Your sovereignty
Your thoughts
Your worth
Your mind
Your strength
Your ways
Your might
Your reasons
Your Love
Your grace
Your forgiveness
Your discipline
Your understanding
Your faithfulness
Your plans
Your life
Your voice
Your HEART.
