More Than Words lyrics

Song information

Artist: Steven Curtis Chapman
Album: More To This Life

Lyrics

Lord, I don't know what to say;
As I get down on my knees to pray
The same old phrases come to mind
But you've heard them all a thousand times
It's not that it's untrue when I say "lord, I love you"
It's just that I want it to be more

Chorus
More than words, I want my prayer to be
More than words, thoughts my heart alone can speak;
As you listen to me tell of all your power and mercy
Lord, you know it's my desire that what you hear is more than words

As I open up this book
And read of all the love it took
For a holy god to care for man;
Spirit, help me understand
It's not that it's unclear, it's a letter to children
But lord I know it's meant to be much more

Chorus
More than words, not just letters on a page;
More than words, for every line and every phrase
Was a breath of inspiration from a caring father
Who gave the gift of his son to prove he loved us more than words

As I consider quietly the wonder of all your ability
It's more than I can comprehend, and I find myself in need again;
But if I had every word and a thousand years to use them
What you are to me would still be more, oh, so much more, more than words
