Melody

I wrote this last year. I love the piano. I love music and often it's the only way for me to express that which lies within.


words fail to express

all that you are to me

your love, your mercy, your grace

it floods through me


so iʼll sit here in reverence

with my hands on the keys

Iʼll play for you

a sweet melody


when all else fails Lord

you remain

when everything is fading

you sustain


i cannot speak

of the wonders youʼve done

so iʼll be still and know

that as your bride, youʼll come


iʼll sit here in reverence

with my hands on the keys

iʼll play for you

a sweet melody


only by your grace

and only by your love

am i able to be here

and be called your child.


without you i am nothing

without you iʼll die

but Lord with your mighty love

i find a reason, so i


i cry out to you

with everything i am

as the tears flow down

may the music be my sound


iʼm bare without you

iʼm vulnerable to this world

so tonight O Lord

would you cover me whole


Iʼll sit here in reverence

with my hands on the keys

iʼll play for you

a sweet melody


may the melody of the piano

be pleasing to you Lord

may you bless my hands

as I sit here, expressing my soul


Thank you Jesus for all youʼve done

Iʼll say it again that

my words will always fail

to ever express your unfailing love


Iʼll sit here in reverence

with my hands on the keys

Iʼll play for you

a sweet melody
