“The Word” A Spoken Word written & performed by Isaac Wimberley If there are words for Him, Then, I don’t have them. You see my brain has not yet reached the point Where it could form a thought that could Adequately describe the greatness of my God And my lungs – have not yet developed the ability to Release a breath with enough agility to Breathe out the greatness of His love And my voice – You see my voice is so inhibited Restrained by human limits, That it’s hard to even send the praise up You see – if there are words for Him, Then, I don’t have them My God His Grace is remarkable, Mercies are innumerable, Strength is impenetrable He is honourable, accountable, favourable He’s UNSEARCHABLE yet knowable INDEFINABLE yet approachable INDESCRIBABLE yet personal He is beyond comprehension, Further than imagination Constant through generations, King of every nation But if there are words for Him, Then, I don’t have them You see my words are few And in trying to capture the one true God Using my vocabulary would never do But I use words as an expression An expression of worship – to A SAVIOR A Savior who is both worthy and deserving of my praise So I use words (SELAH) My heart EXTOLS the Lord, blesses His name forever He has won my heart, captured my mind And has – bound them both together He has DEFEATED me in my rebellion CONQUERED me in my sin He has WELCOMED me into His presence Completely invited me in He has made Himself the object of my sight Flooding me with mercies in the morning Drowning me with grace in the night But if there are words for Him, Then, I don’t have them. But what I DO HAVE is: GOOD NEWS For my God knew that man-made words – would never do The words are just tools – that we use to point to the Truth So He sent His Son Jesus Christ as – THE Word LIVING PROOF He is the image of the invisible God The FIRST BORN of all Creation For by Him all things were created Giving nothingness – FORMATION And by His Word He sustains in the POWER of His name For He is before all things – And over all things He reigns HOLY is His name So PRAISE HIM for His life (SELAH) The way he persevered in strife The humble Son of God becoming the – PERFECT SACRIFICE PRAISE HIM for His death (SELAH That He willingly stood in our place, That He lovingly endured the grave That He BATTLED our Enemy And on the THIRD DAY ROSE in victory (SELAH) He is everything that was promised Praise Him as the Risen King, Lift your voice and sing For one day He will return for us And we will finally be – united with our Savior for eternity ETERNITY (SELAH) So it’s not just words that I proclaim For my words point to The Word And The Word has a name: HOPE has a name! JOY has a name! PEACE has a name! LOVE has a name! And that name is JESUS CHRIST! PRAISE. HIS NAME. FOREVER! How can anyone not WRITE – not PRAISE – after hearing this?
