oh, great god, be small enough to hear me now
there were times when i was crying
from the dark of daniel's den,
and i have asked you, once or twice,
if you would part the sea again.
but tonight i do not need a fiery pillar in the sky,
just wanna know you're gonna hold me if i start to cry.
oh, great god, be small enough to hear me now
oh, great god, be close enough to feel you now
there have been moments when i could not
face goliath on my own,
and how could i forget we've marched around
our share of jerichos.
but i will not be setting out a fleece for you tonight,
just wanna know that everything will be alright.
oh great god, be close enough to feel you now
all praise and all honor be
to the god of ancient mysteries,
whose every sign and wonder turn the pages of our history.
but tonight my heart is heavy
and i cannot keep from whispering this prayer:
"are you there?"
and i know you could leave writing on the wall
that's just for me,
or send wisdom while i'm sleeping
like in soloman's sweet dreams.
but i don't need the strength of samson
or a chariot in the end,
just want to know that you still know how many hairs
are on my head
oh, great god, (are you small enough?)
be small enough to hear me now
