I wish I could understand
This thing in me.
This thing in me
That longs.
This thing in me
That dreams.
I wish I could understand
This thing in me...
What it's stretching out to reach.
What it's trying to embrace,
I suspect it's not a 'what' but a 'who'.
I suspect it's You.
Deep calling unto deep,
"Ephphatha," that is,
"Be opened."
May I have ears that hear.
---
Deep calls to deep at the roar of your waterfalls;
all your breakers and your waves have gone over me.
By day YHWH commands his steadfast love,
and at night his song is with me,
a prayer to the God of my life.
The spirit of man is the lamp of YHWH, searching all his innermost parts.
For who knows a person’s thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God.
From of old no one has heard or perceived by the ear, no eye has seen a God besides you, who acts for those who wait for him.
And his ears were opened, his tongue was released, and he spoke plainly.
