Indescribable

ADDED: None of you commented on my last post about this song, so I almost didn't put it up, but I really needed to write this down to get it out of my head and onto the paper computer so here it is...

ORIGINAL: I have heard this song many times, and while I listen to the words, I hadn't really heard them. Do you know what I mean? The other day I heard the first for the first time. I don't know if it is because of the flooding that is going on, or the Mckinney Family that is on my heart, or the fact that I realized how many of the people in my graduating class are sooooo far from God it is totally scary, or the fact that my kids are growing up, or that we had a great worship service at church, or the "Believing God" Bible study that we are doing talked about this in a round about way, or and God just doing a work in my heart. It could be all of them, or none of them.

(I am including the lyrics to the song, they are in italics and bold and my thoughts are just normal.)

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring Two of my person favorite things. To think that He made the leaves to change color, and imagined knew that we would love it! And the fragrance, I had personally never thought that God could smell. The little things that He KNEW we would appreciate.
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name. He know the names of all the stars. Not just the ones that we have seen, not just the ones that are still here, but ALL of them. How many millions upon millions upon millions of names is that? And he knows how many hairs are on each of our heads, how about millions upon millions upon millions upon millions upon millions of hairs have there been in the years since Adam?
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim How many of us are just going to church because it is what we have done, what we do, what other people think we do and not because we are awestruck? One thing that I have brought up with some of the worship leaders at our church is that they ask tell us to sit down part of the way through worship. How about we "fall to our knees" in amazement instead of sitting down.
You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go And rain drop, and snowflake, and hail... the Bible study that I am doing, "Believing God" talked last week about the battle against Gibeon. Where Joshua asked God to stop the sun. (that is a whole nuther post in and of itself, but...) God also sent down hailstones, large hailstones. He sent them down over the whole fight, Gibeonites and Israelites mixed together. NOT ONE OF THE HAILSTONES HIT A MAN IN JOSHUA'S ARMY. How awesome is that!?!?!?!?!? We serve a mighty God. There are tons of commentaries out there about this but I didn't add them in here...
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow How awesome is that that God has STOREHOUSES laden with snow? How cool would that be to see. I think of like Walmart full of snow!!! Or the Fargodome laden as it was with sand. With all the flooding going on out there, and I feel greatly for them, God knew it was going to happen. He knows how high the water is going to get, He knows how many houses are going to be damaged, or ruined, or safe, or close to. God had all that water in a storehouse to send to us.
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night He knows what we need, light in the day and darkness at night. With all the wonderful nuances of creation, who could even imagine that we would could come from a big bang? Oh the craziness.
None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

I know that isn't the easiest thing to read, and maybe it doesn't make sense to you. But I had to share some of what was on my chest. I am not the most elequant writer, but hopefully God will pass some of my newfound understanding on to you.
