@dabluroom: I really appreciate that, thank you so much!

just wonderful!! you made me cry with this one

Definitely redoing this, I did one take on the chords for the piano and pad, so this means I really didn't have timing right at all on the last section, but I need this to at least keep the idea!  I'm doing FAWM this year, which means writing 14 songs in 28 days, so production is not anywhere close to priority right now. ;)

VERSE 1

Em C G D
Life is like a sacred book missing the most profound pages
Em C G D
there's a pursuit for meaning through the ages
Em C G D
Unrelenting as the impulse to breath
Am Em 
longing to leave
Em C G D
The ceaseless thought that our eyes were meant to see more
Am Em 
What we're made for

CHORUS

C.   Em.    D.    C
How can one grasp the infinite
Am.  Em.   D.   C 
yet you have placed it in our hands
C  Em    D    C
They'll be no sweeter praise to leave my lips
Am Em   D   C
then when I first see the throne of the lamb 

VERSE 2

Em C G D
Are we meant to trace the stars with our fingers
Em C G D
Perhaps life is measured by the moments we linger
Em  C  G  D
Feeling your heart beating mine
Am Em 
our certain sign
Em C G D
You are the distant echo calling us by name
Am Em 
Our greatest gain


BRIDGE
Em C  G  D 
How long before we hear the voice that shakes thunder
How long before we wake up from this slumber
How long before you peel back space and time
How long before two worlds entwine


CDEm  Em F G 
Holy, Holy
How long before we truly see what Holy really means
How long before we   bow before the king of kings
