Truth and Lyrics

Over the last few days a Shane and Shane worship song that found me a couple years ago has found me again. It paints a picture of the feelings of a dry and struggling relationship between a follower of Christ and his/her Creator. It is a place we've all found ourselves during one point or another:

Put down your paper plate
come to the table made
deep blue china
found on the table by the wine
so fine

it brings out flavor
like You bring out color in life

oh, i miss You so
the feel of forever
oh, that taste i know
it hurts to remember
unfortunately high
ironically dissatisfied
i miss You
i miss You

oh, i miss You so
the feel of forever
oh, that taste i know
it hurts to remember

i had a fleeting thought this morning
and i mentioned you today
it breaks my heart just to know You in part
and not to be with You where You are


Beautiful.
