Avalon's 'I'm Speechless' is a worship ballad expressing the inadequacy of human language to capture God's greatness. The singer tries to write songs, paint pictures, and find words, but every attempt falls short of describing the wonder of God's love, grace, and forgiveness. The song conveys awe and gratitude, acknowledging that even a thousand lifetimes couldn't fully express the hope found in God's embrace. It's a heartfelt declaration of praise, celebrating God's mercy and the overwhelming sense of being speechless in His presence.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Some can write a sonnet
To describe in silvery words
The rising and the setting of the sun
Some can paint a picture
In shades of vibrant color
It almost looks like heaven when they're done
(Lord, when I try to speak from my heart)
Lord when I try to speak from my heart
(I don't know where to start)
I don't know where to start
[Chorus:]
When it comes to You
I'm speechless
Nothing holds a candle to the wonder of Your love
I'm amazed by Your grace
Your forgiving embrace
And I'm finding words could never be enough
I'm speechless
I've tried to write the song
I've searched my heart for phrases
But they only catch a glimpse of all You are
If I lived a thousand lifetimes
I'd never come close to saying
Enough about the hope that I found in Your arms
('Cause when I try to speak from my heart)
Cause when I try to speak from my heart
(I don't know where to start)
I don't know where to start
[Chorus]
And when I see the setting of the sun
I can't find the words, there'll never be enough
I'm speechless, speechless at the wonders of Your love
[Chorus]
When it comes to You, I'm speechless (speechless)
Nothing, no one, compares to Your love
I'm amazed by Your grace (Your amazing grace)
Your forgiving embrace
oohhh I'm finding words could never be enough
I'm finding words could never be enough
I'm speechless, I'm speechless
And I'm finding words could never, never be enough
Lalalala
I'm finding words could never, never be enough
Lalalala
(I'm speechless)
And I'm finding words could never, never be enough
Lalalala
(I'm speechless)
I'm finding words could never, never be enough
Lalalala
(I'm speechless)
[until the songs fade away]
