Is this storm going to end...

Branson James Thayer


oh, great god, be small enough to hear me now
there were times when i was crying from the dark of daniel's den
and i have asked you once or twice if you would part the sea again
but tonight i do not need a fiery pillar in the sky
just wanna know:
oh, great god, be small enough to hear me now


oh, great god, be close enough to feel you now
there have been moments when i could not face goliath on my own
and how could i forget we've marched around our share of jerichos
but i will not be setting out a fleece for you tonight
just want to know that:
oh great god, be close enough to feel you now


all praise and all honor be
to the god of ancient mysteries
whose every sign and wonder
turn the pages of our history
but tonight MY HEART IS HEAVY
and i cannot keep from whispering this prayer


and i know you could leave writing on the wall thats just for me
or send wisdom while i'm sleeping, like in soloman's sweet dreams
but i don't need the strength of samson
or a chariot in the end
just want to know that you still know

oh great god, be small enough to hear me now
-by Nichole Nordeman



I can't even get the words that I feel to come into a sentence - but I know I am hurt and broken! My newphew is the most beautiful baby - and his parents, the best God could have chosen for him. But why....why?!
