Music That Matters - Indescribable (Adoration)

Recently, Father Jim mentioned in one of his homilies the four kinds of prayer; ACTS (Adoration, Contrition, Thanksgiving, and Supplication). In cooperation with Music Chick, I am going to offer you songs and reflections throughout the next four weeks. Each week will carry a prayer theme. This week I'll begin with Adoration.

The following song by Chris Tomlin captures very well the feeling I have when I am adoring God. The sheer concept of who God is and what He does...sometimes I just have to praise and honor Him because I have no words to explain His awesomeness.

Album - Arriving

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
