Powerful Lyricist

So there are many Christian artists which I didn't hear about due to my age. A lot of friends really admire Keith Green's lyrics and I continue to read through them, listen to the few songs of his that I do have. I like this song...it speaks to how things felt when I accepted Christ personally. It seems fitting to have them here following the posts which have come before this one.


Your Love Broke Through
Keith Green
Like a foolish dreamer, trying to build a highway to the sky
All my hopes would come tumbling down, and I never knew just why
Until today, when you pulled away the clouds that hung like curtains on my eyes
Well I've been blind all these wasted years and I thought I was so wise
But then you took me by surprise

Like waking up from the longest dream, how real it seemed
Until your love broke through
I've been lost in a fantasy, that blinded me
Until your love broke through

All my life I've been searching for that crazy missing part
And with one touch, you just rolled away the stone that held my heart
And now I see that the answer was as easy, as just asking you in
And I am so sure I could never doubt your gentle touch again
It's like the power of the wind

Like waking up from the longest dream, how real it seemed
Until your love broke through
I've been lost in a fantasy, that blinded me
Until your love, until your love, broke through
