Na?na?.holy


How many roads did I travel

Before I walked down one that led me to You?

How many dreams did unravel

Before I believed in a hope that was true?


And how long? How far?

What was meant to fulfill only emptied me still

And all You ever wanted


Only me, on my knees

Singing, ?Holy, holy?

And somehow all that matters now is

You are holy, holy

Holy, holy


How many deaths did I die

Before I was awakened to new life again?

And how many half-truths did I bear witness to

'Til the proof was disproved in the end?


And how long? How far?

What was meant to illuminate, shadowed me still

And all You ever wanted


Only me, on my knees

Singing, ?Holy, holy?

And somehow all that matters now is

You are holy, holy


And all I have is gratitude to offer You


You are holy, holy

And somehow all that matters now is

You are holy

You are holy

Holy


And somehow all that matters now is

You are holy

You are holy


Only me, on my knees

Singing, ?Holy, holy?

And somehow all that matters now is

You are holy, holy, holy , holy


Holy
