Greatness Is Quietly Loud
Greatness is quietly loud
His voice causes the earth to tremble
Calling new life from her birthing loins
Gentle hands can hold a fragile flower
His kiss nourishes a bud in the misty dawn
Great is He who labors over the sparrow
Warms our earthly hearts with his whisper
Guards our slumbering souls as we sleep
Colors this earthly canvas with a royal majesty
Listen… shhhhh
Music is in every sound the ears can hear
Melodic rustling of trees waltzing in the breeze
Everyday life erupts with notes born to partake in song
Laughter causes feet to shuffle like a raspy voice
Hands clap to a beat, fingers snap to a tune
Lovers sway as leafy branches waving to the moon
Connected by the harp strings of the heart’s desire
Whistling winds carry the infinite sounds of joy
A newborns smell invokes a love one cannot define
As they grow, parents taste of His nurturing flow
Our divine destiny of creation to produce a living being
Magnificent is the trust placed within the human spirit
We are so rich in what money can never buy
God is so exquisite it brings me to my knees
Every creation works together balancing the earth
These things reveal the sanctity of our worth
Father
How Great Thou Art!
