The following are the Lyrics from a song that has been nearly impossible for me to forget…
Read the Lyrics, and listen,… It will be well worth your time,
God Bless, Scott.
The Holy Now, by Peter Mayer
On Sunday, we would go to church
And pay attention to the priest
He would read the holy word and consecrate the holy bread
And everyone would kneel and bow
Today the only difference is everything is holy now
When I was in Sunday school we would learn about the time
Moses split the sea in two,
Jesus made the water wine and I remember feeling sad
That miracles don’t happen still
But now I can’t keep track ‘Cause everything’s a miracle
Everything’s a miracle
Wine from water is not so small
But an even better magic trick
Is that anything is here at all
So the challenging thing becomes
Not to look for miracles
But finding where there isn’t one
When holy water was rare at best it barely wet my fingertips
But now I have to hold my breath like I’m swimming in a sea of it
It used to be a world half there
Heaven’s second rate hand-me-down
But I walk it with a reverent air
‘Cause everything is holy now
Everything is holy now
Read a questioning child’s face and say it’s not a testament that’d be very hard to say
See another new morning come and say it’s not a sacrament
I tell you that it can’t be done
This morning, outside I stood and saw a little red-winged bird
Shining like a burning bush, Singing like a scripture verse
It made me want to bow my head
I remember when church let out
How things have changed since then
Everything is holy now
It used to be a world half-there
Heaven’s second rate hand-me-down
But I walk it with a reverent air
