Lord, I don't know what to say; As I get down on my knees to pray The same old phrases come to mind But You've heard them all a thousand times It's not that it's untrue when I say "Lord, I love You" It's just that I want it to be more More than words, I want my prayer to be More than words, thoughts my heart alone can speak; As you listen to me tell of all Your power and mercy Lord, You know it's my desire that what You hear is more than words As I open up this Book And read of all the love it took For a holy God to care for man; Spirit, help me understand It's not that it's unclear, it's a letter to children But Lord I know it's meant to be much more More than words, not just letters on a page; More than words, for every line and every phrase Was a breath of inspiration from a caring Father Who gave the gift of His Son to prove He loved us more than words As I consider quietly the wonder of all Your ability It's more than I can comprehend, and I find myself in need again; But if I had every word and a thousand years to use them What You are to me would still be more, oh, so much more, more than words
