More Than Words
(专辑: More To This Life - 1989)
Lord, I
don't know what to say; As I
get down on my knees to pray, The
same old phrases come to mind, But You've heard them all a
thousand times. It's not that it's untrue when I
say "Lord, I
love You", It's just that I
want it to be more. [Chorus] More than words, I
want my prayer to be More than words, thoughts my heart alone can speak; As you listen to me tell of all Your power and mercy, Lord, You know it's my desire that what You hear is more than words. As I
open up this Book, And read of all the
love it took For a
holy God to care for man; Spirit, help me understand. It's not that it's unclear, it's a
letter to children, But Lord I
know it's meant to be much more. [Chorus] More than words, not just letters on a
page; More than words, for every line and every phrase Was a
breath of inspiration from a
caring Father Who gave the
gift of His Son to prove He loved us more than words. As I
consider quietly the
wonder of all Your ability, It's more than I
can comprehend, and I
find myself in need again; But if I
had every word and a
thousand years to use them, What You are to me would still be more, oh, so much more, more than words.
