Oh great God be small enough to hear me now.
There are times when I was crying
from the dark of Daniel's den,
and I have asked you once or twice
to part the sea again.
But tonight I do not need a fiery pillar in the sky.
Just wanna 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 you now.
There have been times
that I could not face Goliath on my own,
and how could I forget we've marched
around our share of Jericho's,
but I will not be setting out
a fleece for you tonight.
Just want to know
everything will be alrigh
Oh Great God be close enough to feel you now
All praise and honour
be to the God of ancient mysteries,
whose every sign and wonder
turn the pages of our history.
But tonight my heart is heavy,
and I cannot keep from whispering this prayer,
"are you there?"
And I know that you could leave
writing on the wall that's just for me
or send wisdom when I'm sleeping
like in Solomon's sweet dreams.
But I don't need the strength of Samson
or a chariot in the end.
Just want to know that you still know
how many hairs are on my head
Oh Great God be small enough to hear me now.
