Derek Webb - I Measure The Days (Simplified Anglican Chant) lyrics

Your voice is like the deepest ocean So rich with color that this language cannot name You speak in shades of thunder In storms and rain you have brought me low With one word you can call the halcyon waters forth Your face is radiant like an ancient star It burns across the universe of my mind I put my hands over my eyes, my prayers they make no sound My knees pull me prostrate to the earth I wait for the morning light like a watchman Your presence it is like a whisper It is here and then it hides away I see the flaming skies, the summer fields in bloom I see the beauty glimmer through the rocks before it fades Back to the ground I am returning, I measure the days
