"But"

A quiet place far away in the centre of my heart
Sheltered by the solitude like my Daddy's arms
Seeking and knowing I will find
Resting these weary eyes
Leaving my deepest fears behind
Under the endless sky
I lift my heart up high and...

Father, You breathe, and I hear You whispering
And Your mercy covers me
Father, You breathe, and Your presence fills the air
And I find my solace there

Here is where peace abides with all that I desire
You lay me down in luscious green to rest when I am tired
Saviour, You meet me where I am
Here on this earthen floor
Dying, You gave me life again, emptied of all but love
And that would've been enough but...

Father, You breathe, and I hear You whispering
And Your mercy covers me
Father, You breathe, and Your presence fills the air
And I find my solace there

-- "You Breathe" by Nouveaux

"That would've been enough but..." That word floors me. That even if, for the rest of my life, He never did anything else for me again, what He has already done is enough for me to worship and be thankful for, my whole life. But He chose to give me so much more. He chose to bless me far beyond my wildest imagination, and most of all, to love me in a way that I will never fully grasp.
