Flowers
Hollyn's song is a reflective Christian pop track that uses nature imagery—flowers, birds, and wind—to explore spiritual growth and attentiveness. The lyrics express a desire to see the world and God's work more deeply, moving beyond surface-level living. The singer asks God to teach her to notice the small, simple things and to grow in faith. There's a sense of wonder at creation's design and how God cares for the brokenhearted. The song gently encourages listeners to slow down, look closer, and walk with God, finding meaning in the details of life.
Pink petals budding now
Pastel love in bloom
I love you
Rests in my hair
Pull me aside
Teach me how to make them
How to make flowers
How to make flowers
Cause how could something so small?
Hold your attention?
And how could nothing at all
Be everything to you?
How could something so simple
Be as powerful as this?
Maybe this is what I've been missing
Missing, missing
(Teach me how to see, see the things in front of me, teach me how to grow deeper as I go)
How many things have I walked on by?
How many times have I not even tried to see?
How many things have I walked on by?
And you nudged me to look deeper
Oh, to look deeper than myself
(Teach me how to see, see the things in front of me)
I want to know more
(Teach me how to grow deeper as I go)
I want to go farther
I want to walk with you, Lord
Where do birds fly off to?
How do flowers spin?
How does wind know where to move?
And lately I've been thinking about
How perfectly its set apart
And how you do the same to my broken heart
