Indescribable by Chris Tomlin

This song speaks to the wonder and awesomeness of God. He is uncontainable, awesome, all powerful. The word omnipotent means “there is nothing that (HE) cannot do, is not capable of thinking, and rules supreme over all creation. Wow…

So, to the lyrics:

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation’s revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
INCOMPARABLE, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

link to the lyrics

I’m always just blown away by these lyrics. Paul is talking about the wide open spaces of God’s glory, and the free access to His grace. The words convey that power, and remind us that we need to be moved, that we need to be in awe of God and also that we should be in awe of the remarkable gift that we’ve been given that no one on earth could ever produce. Only through God’s gift can we have this access…Praise to the Lord!
