Speechless

God touched my heart through music again this morning. As such, it wasn’t hard to pick my song of the day.

So… here’s the lyrics to “Speechless”, by Steven Curtis Chapman. An audio preview can be found here (it’s track 2).

My words fall like drops of rain.
My lips are like clouds.
I’ve said so many things, trying to figure you out.
But as mercy opens my eyes, and my words are stolen away
With this breathtaking view of your grace…

I am Speechless
I’m astonished and amazed
I am silenced by your wondrous grace.
You have saved me.
You have raised me from the grave.
And I am Speechless
In your presence now.
I’m astounded as I consider how
You have shown us the love that leaves us speechless.

So what kind of love could this be
That would trade heaven’s throne for a cross?
And to think you still celebrate
over finding just one who was lost.
And to know you rejoice over us
The God of this whole universe.
It’s a story that’s too great for words…

We are speechless.

Oh how great is the love
The Father has lavished upon us
That we should be called the sons and daughters of God?

We are speechless.

You have saved us from the grave.

We are speechless.

    I haven’t listened to that song in a while, but it is always good to read the words. Reminded me of Chris Tomlin’s Indescribable.

    I hadn’t heard it in a while either. I happened to flip over to a Christian station on AM radio I hadn’t listened to in a month or two, and boom… there was the song… just what I needed to hear this morning.

    I guess I need to jump over to Kevin’s site… sounds like a Godwink to me… 🙂
