Hello Lord by Sara Groves

Duncan and I spent the ANZAC Day long weekend at Cornerstone camp.  This year's theme was 'Guidance' which is very appropriate as to where I'm at at the moment.  I know God gives us enormous freedom as his children to make decisions within his guidelines, but I still struggle.  A few years back, a friend shared the lyrics of this song with me, and I loved them so much, I borrowed Sara Groves' CD from another friend.

Hello Lord, it's me your child.
I have a few things on my mind.
Right now I'm faced with big decisions,
And I'm wondering if you have a minute, cuz
Right now I don't hear so well,
And I was wondering if you could speak up.

I know that you tore the veil,
So I could sit with you in person,
And hear what you're saying, but,
Right now, I just can't hear you.

I don't doubt your sovereignty.
I doubt my own ability to,
Hear what you're saying,
And to do the right thing,
And I desperately want to do the right thing.
But right now I don't hear so well,
And I was wondering if you could speak up.

And somewhere in the back of my mind,
I think you are telling me to wait,
And though patience has never been mine,
Lord, I will wait to hear from you.
Oh Lord, I'm waiting on you.

I know that you tore the veil,
So I could sit with you in person,
And hear what you're saying but,
Right now, I think you're whispering.
