Small Enough

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.
