Lay out the ancient wonders
Spread them out to look again
Have I forgot the mysteries,
The marvels done before my eyes
Is this the sign of losing faith,
Or am I just asleep again
Dreaming up an independence
Of living on my own without a Friend
(it scares me to death)
Well, Jacob wrestled 15 rounds,
Joseph wrestled 10,
If David stood and he fell down
But got back up again
Oh then surely I can (surely I can)
Have a little faith!
If You’ve opened up the eyes of the blind
I’m sure that You could open mine
And all these wonders, they are true
Helping all who look find You
So I’m reminiscing miracles…again
You split the Sea and I walked through
You held me by the hand
The Rock was broke so I could drink
And live in Promised Land
And I know that this will all work out
I know that I’m just scared
Of stepping out onto the waves
To find that You were never really there
But I’m looking at Your faithfulness
And that’s never how the story seems to end…
And all these wonders, they are true
Helping all who look find You
So I’m reminiscing miracles
And all I have is a mustard seed
But that’s all You said You need from me
So I’m trusting You for miracles
Behind the Song:When we were recording this record, I had to work several jobs to make ends meet. One of those jobs that I absolutely loved was being a substitute school teacher. Often when I was teaching, I would get to take breaks in between my classes. This song was written during one of those breaks in one of the band classrooms on another rickety, old upright piano.
