Song Lyrics

Verse:
The earth below,
The sky above;
They alone can’t hold
All Your great love;
The moon above,
With water beneath;
Their presence can’t bring
My needed relief;

All these things,
Sights to behold;
Barely tell
Your ways of old;
All for this
I need Your word,
For there I find
A love unheard;

Chorus:
All I see,
Can’t come near
To my great Lord,
Whom I’ve found dear;
But like a painting
Show a fraction of You;
Your power and wisdom,
With love so true;

Verse:
All so these things
Seem so pale
‘Gainst a love
That chose to hail,
“It is finished,”
For all our souls,
God’s die is cast,
His own are whole;

In the hand
That made these things,
See the mark
That such love brings;
He carries within
A joy complete,
As He sits
By the Father’s feet;

Bridge:
Within myself
The seed took root,
Springing up,
A strong shoot;
Here I see
I’m borne above;
A seal within
Of His great love;
One day soon,
I’ll finally be free,
He’ll be alone
All I see;
