Hidden Grace (song)
I
traveled across the world
Searching
for costly treasure
Precious
gold and jewels
Eternal
value beyond measure
Across
the highest mountains
Down to the valley below
Down to the valley below
Desperate
to satisfy my soul
Empty
handed I was losing hope
Until I
tasted the charms of your soft embrace
And the
wonders of your hidden grace
Your love is a consuming fire
Signs and wonders fill the sky
But it's your hidden grace I desire
It's your hidden grace I desire
Your love is a consuming fire
Signs and wonders fill the sky
But it's your hidden grace I desire
It's your hidden grace I desire
I was
wandering through the desert
Following
no particular road
Deaf,
dumb and blind
I didn't
know where to go
But you
led me by the hand
Took me
down to the stream
You gave
me your sweet living water to drink
Gently
washed my face
You gave
me new eyes to see
You
opened my heart and shared your hidden grace
Your love is a consuming fire
Signs and wonders fill the sky
But it's your hidden grace I desire
It's your hidden grace I desire
Your love is a consuming fire
Signs and wonders fill the sky
But it's your hidden grace I desire
It's your hidden grace I desire
Across
the evening sky you blazed a trail
Leading
me past the horizon chasing a comet’s tail
Free now
of all the bonds that entangled me
And chained me to the ground
And chained me to the ground
Soaring
past the stars
Take me
to your higher place
Fill my
soul with love divine
And the
beauty of your hidden grace
Signs and wonders fill the sky
But it's your hidden grace I desire
It's your hidden grace I desire
Signs and wonders fill the sky
But it's your hidden grace I desire
It's your hidden grace I desire
Gentle, dreamy, subdued acoustic piece. Incredibly reflective and autobiographic. Despite a certain amount of contentment at the end there is still a lingering restlessness.
