Finally...

"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 Jericho’s 
But I will not be setting out a fleece for you tonight 
Just want to know that everything will be all right 

Oh great god, be close enough to feel you now
All praise and all honor be 
to the god of ancient mysteries 
Who’s 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 Solomon’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, be small enough to hear me now"

Small Enough- Nichole Nordeman
