Steven Curtis Chapman: Speechless

Speechless
Eph. 2:4-7; 1 Jn. 3:1; Psalm 66:1-5; Hab. 2:20

My words fall like drops of rain.
My lips are like clouds.
I've said so many things
Trying to figure you out.
As mercy opens my eyes
my words are stolen away.
At this breathtaking view of your grace

And I am speechless, I'm astonished and amazed
I am silenced by your wondrous grace.
You have saved me
You have raised me from the grave.
And I am speechless in your presence now.
I'm astounded as I consider how
You have shown us
A love that leaves us speechless

So what kind of love can this be
That will trade heaven's throne for a cross
To think that you still celebrate
For finding just one who was lost.
To know you rejoice over us
The God of this whole universe.
It's a story too great for words

And I am speechless, I'm astonished and amazed
I am silenced by your wondrous grace.
You have saved me
You have raised me from the grave.
And I am speechless in your presence now.
I'm astounded as I consider how
You have shown us
A love that leaves us speechless
We are speechless

Oh, how great is the love
The Father has lavished upon us
That we should be called
The sons and the daughters of God

We are speechless
(We stand in awe of your grace)
so amazed
(We stand in awe of your mercy)
You have saved us
(We stand in awe of your love)
from the grave
(We are speechless)

We are speechless, I'm astonished and amazed
I am silenced by your wondrous grace
You have saved me
You have raised me from the grave.
And I am speechless in your presence now.
I'm astounded as I consider how
You have shown us
A love that leaves us speechless

We stand in awe of your cross
We stand in awe of your power
We are speechless
We stand in awe of your grace
We stand in awe of your mercy
We stand in awe of your love
We are speechless
