The germ of this song began right around the time my daughter, Lily was born, a year and a half ago. Though just a sketch at the time, I’d hold her in one arm, and play this song on the piano with my free hand, working out the progression and melody – Sleeping At Last’s Ryan
A video for the behind...
[Verse 1]
I see God in symmetry
I see God in our make-believe
I see God in our grand attempts
To make something beautiful
Before life ends
I see God in irony
In fragile heirlooms within children’s reach
[Pre-Chorus]
I see God in our damaged good
But you see God in ways I wish I could
You see God in ways I wish I could
[Chorus]
Without instruction
Without obstruction
You believe
Without container
Or dualistic framework
You see the Holy Ghost in broad daylight
And I see the reflection in your eyes
[Verse 2]
I see God in healing bones
In the sanctuary of our homes
I see God in the wilderness
In our magnetism to recklessness
Black or white or vivid color
After a while, it all runs together
Our stained glass means nothing without light
[Pre-Chorus]
I see God in our damaged good
But you see God in ways I wish I could
You see God in ways I wish I could
[Chorus]
Without assurance
Without insurance
You believe
Without condition
Or the promise of heaven
You see the Holy Ghost in broad daylight
And I see the reflection in your eyes
I see the reflection in your eyes
