Surprising Me

I once imagined You an old man in the clouds
Maybe You used to speak, but You’re too weak and tired now
But You’re surprising me, the way You say my name
A whisper in my ear that kills my fear, revives my faith
It revives my faith
I used to worry, You’d want the perfect words
Into the thinnest air, I said my prayers, I hoped You heard
But You’re surprising me, the way Your quiet feels
You put Your hand against my anxious lips and make me still
And make me still
And You’re surprising me, You know what makes me hurt
You say You’ll never be apart from me, You never were
And You’re surprising me, this joy I never knew
I cannot hold it back, this river that I fell into
I cannot hold it back, this river that is loving You
Is loving You
