Ellie Holcomb's 'I Don't Want To Miss It' is a gentle, reflective song about being fully present to hear God's voice and experience His love. The lyrics compare God's voice to a burning bush and thundering hooves, yet also to hummingbird wings, emphasizing both majesty and intimacy. The singer climbs a sycamore tree, a reference to Zacchaeus, symbolizing a desire to see and hear Jesus clearly. The repeated breathing in and out of 'I love you' suggests a prayerful, meditative posture. The song encourages listeners to slow down and not miss the melody of God's love singing over them.

Your voice is a burning bush

Your voice is a million things 

Your voice is the sound of thundering hooves

Your voice is hummingbird?s wings 


And I don?t want to miss it 

I don?t want to miss a thing

So I climbed up in a sycamore tree

?Cause I don?t want to miss a thing

And I don?t want to miss it

I don?t want to miss a thing

I don?t want to miss the melody

That You?ve been singing over me

Yeah, You?ve been singing all around me 


Your touch is the warmth of sun

Your touch is the lingering kind

I?m a child reaching up, put your hand in mine

Swing me around, I want to fly 


And I don?t want to miss it 

I don?t want to miss a thing

So I climbed up in a sycamore tree

?Cause I don?t want to miss one thing

No, I don?t want to miss it

No, I don?t want to miss a thing

I don?t want to miss the melody

That You?ve been singing over me

Yeah, You?ve been singing all around me 


Yeah, You?ve been singing all around me

Yeah, You?ve been singing all around me


I breathe in, I love you

I breathe out, I love you

I breathe in, I love you

I breathe out, I love you

I breathe in, I love you

I breathe out, I love you

I breathe in, I love you

I breathe out, I love you


No, I don?t want to miss it 

I don?t want to miss a thing

So I climbed up in a sycamore tree

?Cause I don?t want to miss one thing

No, I don?t want to miss it

No, I don?t want to miss a thing

I don?t want to miss the melody

That You?ve been singing over me

Yeah, You?ve been singing all around me 


Yeah, You?ve been singing all around me

Yeah, You?ve been singing all around me
