I Stand  :: words & music by Nkechi

A funny thing happened to me this afternoon.  After experiencing the joy of listening to a few friends and watching their eyes dance as we talked from morning into afternoon I was struck silent .. for a few minutes .. while I stood looking at the sky, stuck somewhere between a cry and a laugh and an open ended silent how?

Within a few minutes of this silence I scrambled for the Voice Notes application on my Blackberry and out this song poured.  It poured from my soul as I sang it right into my Blackberry .. Voice Note Number 694 to be exact.  Yup, I've been a bit busy, recording song bits and pieces here and there as they come.   Using the  this feature on my Blackberry as a recording device for the music that flows through my Spirit whne it chooses to come is better than great. Sometime later with help, as usual, I'll get to record this song and play it live to bring it officially to Life.

For now I am mesmerized by the grace of these lyrics. They sufficiently express those few momemts of awestruck silence.  I pray that despite our action packed lives, we all get a moment to taste a bit of this quiet joy each day :-)  Here are the song lyrics. Enjoy!

I Stand  :: words & music by Nkechi

I Stand in Awe of U
I Stand Humbled by Ur Grace.
I Stand Receiving the Miracles
The Essence of Ur Name

When my eyes are closed and
No one’s looking in
U and I smile quietly inside
Remembering

U Came When I Least Expected U 2
U Came When I Least wanted U 2
U Came and Stayed and Stayed and Stayed
And Gave and Gave and Gave
‘Till I Couldn’t Stay Away.

I Stand in Awe of U
I Stand Humbled by Ur Grace.
I Stand Receiving the Miracles
The Essence of Ur Name

Even When Hopes Didn’t Seem 2 be Fulfilled
You Quietly Whispered Ur Purpose in my Ear
And Now I Exclaim I Hear, I Hear, I Hear U

I Stand in Awe of U
I Stand Humbled by Ur Grace.
I Stand Receiving the Miracles
The Essence of Ur Name

May 2010 Be Ur Most Blessed Year!

Blessings :-)
