Oh, great God
Be small enough to hear me now
There were times when I was crying
From the dark of Daniel's den
And I had asked you once or twice
If you would part the sea again
Tonight I do not need a
Fiery pillar in the sky
Just want to know you're gonna
Hold me if I start to cry
Oh, great God
Be small enough to hear me now
Oh, great God
Be close enough to feel me now
There have been moments when I could not face
Goliath on my own
And how could I forget we marched
Around our share of Jericho's
But I will not be setting out
The fleece for you tonight
Just wanna know if everything will be alright
Oh great God be close enough to feel me now
Oh, praise and all the honor be
To the God of ancient mysteries
Whose every sign and wonder
Turn the page of our history
But tonight my heart is heavy
And I cannot keep from whispering, whispering
Are you there?
And I know you could leave writing
On the wall that's just for me
Or send wisdom while I'm sleeping
Like in Solomon's sweet dreams
I don't need the strength of Sampson
Or a chariot in the end
Just wanna know you still know how many
Hairs are on my head
Oh, great God
(Are you small enough)
Be small enough to hear
Me now
-Nichole Nordeman
"Small Enough"
Because sometimes, the lyrics of a beautiful song say it all.
"Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity." -Gilda Radner
