A Not So Certain Journey

Quieter than a Flame

May 29, 2006 · 1 Comment

So I have to admit that I like worship time at church. I use to like all the songs that were played. But as I have gone through my spiritual journey some “worship songs” have become irrelevant and sometimes just down right cheesy to me. So I am a big fan of people that write worship songs not intending them to be worship song. My friend Ian does worship at our church two times a month. He wrote a song called Quieter than a Flame. Every time I hear this song I am just riveted! The lyrics rock my world. Here they are:

Quieter than a Flame

I come now before you

To bow down and adore you

You alone are God

You alone are good

So we come now to worship you

Bow down and worship you

You are everything

King of every King

But you move through us

Like a hurricane

And you walk among us

Like a lion, untamed

And work on us

Like a wind without a name

But you speak to us in a voice

That is quieter than a flame

I come now to behold you

Jesus I have told you

I’m sorry for no seeing
