More Than

There are a thousand songs of the same refrain
None of them stand with me in the darkest night
Singing of the times I gave myself away
My love cast off to an idol’s fame

So I’ve been running myself into the ground
To put You together, to figure You out
But Your heart is like poetry, more like a song to sing
I’ve been out-of-key and off-beat all along

There are a thousand reasons You should give up
Namely, to grow weary of how often I run
From this dance of You teaching me nothing less than how to love
By Your gentleness, all my defense is undone

There are a thousand angels who know my name
For all the times You’ve called them to the lines for me
Proving You are stronger than relentless shame
Your words dripping grace, I know I'm finally safe

My eyes are beginning to find
Your words have no laces or traces of lies
Every action in Your pursuit after me
Is forged in the furnace of a holy jealousy

There are a thousand other loves who’ve known my touch
I know better than all the debt of their cost
I left them all when You raised my dirty eyes from the dust
There have been a thousand, but You are more than all
You are more than all
