Lyrics My Thoughts

Why I chose this song and how does it apply to me

When I was a boy, each week 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, everything, everything, everything is holy now.

(When I was little, I went to church but I didn't understand everything. Now when I go, everything has meaning and is holy.)

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 is a miracle. Everything, everything, everything is 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.

(I realize everything in life is a miracle even just being able to get up in the morning.)

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, everything, everything is holy now.

(Holy water used to be just water to me, but now I realize every time I bless myself how holy it is.)

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 cause everything is holy now.

(I realize now when I look around that everything in this world is touched by God.)

I chose this song because it applies how

I look at the world right now compared to

how I looked at it when I was younger.

This song applies to my life because it shows how

I look at life and I look at it like God has spent time on each and every last spot in the universe.
