My thoughts: This is a beautiful song, a heartfelt, simple love song to God, that makes me ache just reading the words. Sometimes we don't need many words to sing praise to God (even Redman's I stand in awe of You is a bit wordy for the sentiment it's trying to express) and this is a wonderful example. It has shades of Peter Gabriel about it - the early one, fresh out of Genesis when he was singing things like Biko. Nothing wrong with that, and the ethereal quality it has. Maybe this one won't be used much in general worship, but I think it would be great for meditation times, or ministry, just playing quietly in the background and let the Spirit carry you away...
