I stretch my hands
From fists they spread
To the skies
With what I have
I give you all
I have to give
My mustard seed.
Trembling with the agony
Of feeling so much apathy
I hold this tiny seed
With all I have.
You say this seed moves mountains
Push back what’s blocking me
You promise that your truth will come
To all who want to see…
Move this mountain for me.
Open up my view
Show me you adore me
Reveal to me you’re you…
The valley’s shadows darken
Empty, I concede
I’m parched , I’m hungry for the proof
To once again believe
Desert life is lifeless
Barren burdens lie
This dried up land, is where I stand
Do you hear my cry?
Stuck I plead, fixed in this place
I come to you in my disgrace
With all I have, with all I face
I hold this tiny seed.
Open up your heavens
And rain your spirit down.
Soak me in your power
Let me see your crown.
I batter questions in my mind
Thrashing waves of righteousness
Pull me under heavy shame
My heart it longs for piousness
You say this seed moves mountains
Push back what’s blocking me
You promise that your truth will come
To all who want to see…
I beg you please to show your face
I need to see your hand
Share with me the mystery
So I can understand.
This nomad heart is floundering
Help me find your home
Open up the door for me
I’m knocking as I roam
Break the chains of questioning
The ground on which I stand
Soak your Spirit into me
Seal my heart again
Mercy break my bondage
Offer me relief
Take my seed and fill me
Heal my unbelief.
I’m trapped inside
This small cocoon
Can’t see beyond my wall
Await I will, my faith stands still
Transform me through it all.
So I can come before you
Fall down on my knees
Praise you and adore you
Oh, grow my mustard seed.
I stretch my hands
From fists they spread
To the skies
With what I have
I give you all
I have to give
My mustard seed.
