Yours, O Lord,"); document.writeln("is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty,"); document.writeln("for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom,"); document.writeln("O Lord, and you are exalted as"); document.writeln("head above all.1

The word \'€śindescribable\'€ť is"); document.writeln("an adjective used to describe something that cannot be described due to its"); document.writeln("intensity, beauty, or shocking nature.

In his song, \'€śIndescribable\'€ť, Chris Tomlin takes us to a place of imagination. He begins by"); document.writeln("setting the scene in nature:

"); document.writeln("

\'€śFrom the"); document.writeln("highest of heights to the depths of the sea

"); document.writeln("

 Creations revealing"); document.writeln("Your majesty

"); document.writeln("

From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring, Every"); document.writeln("creature unique in the song that it sings\'€ť

If you have ever stood at the"); document.writeln("edge of the vast ocean, in the midst of a forest surrounded by towering trees,"); document.writeln("looked down into the depths of a great canyon, or stood at the base of a"); document.writeln("rushing waterfall you were probably left speechless for a moment, feeling as if"); document.writeln("there were no words to describe the sight before you. The rest of the song goes"); document.writeln("on to use that same feeling to describe God in all of His greatness:

"); document.writeln("

\'€śAll powerful, untamable\'€”Awestruck,"); document.writeln("we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim

"); document.writeln("

You are amazing, God

"); document.writeln("

Indescribable,"); document.writeln("uncontainable\'€”You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name

"); document.writeln("

You are amazing, God

"); document.writeln("

Incomparable, unchangeable\'€”You see the"); document.writeln("depths of my heart and You love me the same

"); document.writeln("

You are amazing, God\'€ť2

In"); document.writeln("these days surrounding Easter, when the Love of God for us is so present in the"); document.writeln("forefront of our minds, I encourage you to seek out the intense beauty that"); document.writeln("comes with standing in His presence. Open your imagination to the"); document.writeln("indescribable awesomeness of our Lord. Allow the knowledge of His unchanging"); document.writeln("Love to fill you with immeasurable gratitude for Jesus\'€™ suffering on the cross"); document.writeln("and all that it means for you. And then, take in the untameable power"); document.writeln("demonstrated in His resurrection!

Suggested"); document.writeln("prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, I have no words to describe your greatness. Thank"); document.writeln("you for seeing me, loving me, and considering me worthy of your forgiveness and"); document.writeln("mercy. In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
