The Clouds Above

 Higher than the clouds
Do you feel, do you feel
Higher than the clouds?
Do you see, do you see
The words I speak aloud…

Resilient – 
That’s the word that describes your inner glow
Brilliant –
That’s the word that speaks to me as you know
Excellent –
That’s the word that is perfect for His Holy Spirit
Magnificent –
That’s the word that describes God and His Word that I still don’t fully get

But, I give God honor, appreciation and praise
For all the miracles He gave to us these days 
He is the definition of agape love…
It’s even higher than the clouds above
Higher than the clouds above
Than the clouds above
The clouds above
Clouds above
Above 
Clouds above
The clouds above
Than the clouds above 
Lower than the clouds above,
That’s where we all stand and abide thereof
We are the definition of His turtle dove…
If only we change and keep changing our ways
But, I will always remember Christ's future Days

Higher than the clouds 
Do you hear, do you hear
Echoes of empathy in serenity shrouds? 
Do you touch, do you touch
The epic embrace of encouragement above the crowd?

Resilient – 
That’s the word that describes your inner glow
Brilliant –
That’s the word that speaks to me as you know
Excellent –
That’s the word that is perfect for His Holy Spirit
Magnificent –
That’s the word that describes God and His Word that I still don’t fully get

But, I give God honor, appreciation and praise
For all the miracles He gave to us these days 
He is the definition of agape love…
It’s even higher than the clouds above
Higher than the clouds above
Than the clouds above
The clouds above
Clouds above
Above 
Clouds above
The clouds above
Than the clouds above 
Lower than the clouds above,
That’s where we all stand and abide thereof
We are the definition of His turtle dove…
If only we change and keep changing our ways
But, I will always remember Christ's future Days

Higher than the clouds
Do you taste, do you taste
The pleasure and pain of life's bitterness suddenly enshroud?
Do you smell, do you smell
The perfumes of passion and the air of despair, strong and proud? 

Resilient – 
That’s the word that describes your inner glow
Brilliant –
That’s the word that speaks to me as you know
Excellent –
That’s the word that is perfect for His Holy Spirit
Magnificent –
That’s the word that describes God and His Word that I still don’t fully get

But, I give God honor, appreciation and praise
For all the miracles He gave to us these days 
He is the definition of agape love…
It’s even higher than the clouds above
Higher than the clouds above
Than the clouds above
The clouds above
Clouds above
Above 
Clouds above
The clouds above
Than the clouds above 
Lower than the clouds above,
That’s where we all stand and abide thereof
We are the definition of His turtle dove…
If only we change and keep changing our ways
But, I will always remember Christ's future Days

I will always remember,
Feeling and seeing
Higher than the clouds above
I will always remember,
Hearing and touching
Lower than the clouds above
I will always forget,
Tasting and smelling
The regret and wrongs that rove
In my head of dread 
That I can’t and won’t think of 
Think of above instead
