My desperate heart's cry

Oh great God

be small enough to hear me now

There were times when I was crying

from the dark of Daniel's den

I have asked You once or twice

if You would part the sea again

But 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 You now

Oh, great God

be close to me

There have been moments

when I could not face Goliath on my own

And how could I forget

we've marched around our share of Jerichos

But I will not be setting out

a fleece for You tonight

Just want to know

that everything will be alright

Oh, great God

be close enough to feel You now

All praise and all the honor 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?"

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

But I don't need the strength of Samson

or a chariot in the end

Just want to 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
