about

This song idea came from an interesting conversation between Moses and God where Moses asked to see God's glory (his essence). God replied that no one could handle that but offered to put Moses in "the cleft of the rock" and pass by and Moses could see the back of Him. I bet that was amazing! You can read it in Exodus 33. In these lyrics, I borrowed the same prayer. I hope you enjoy. If you like it and you want to support future recordings you can to give whatever amount over $1 you want. Thanks so much and have a fabulous day!! www.lizibailey.com

lyrics

I know my weakness
I feel it with each step I take
I cannot breathe without your grace
I know the answer
Is not in trying harder but
In falling more upon the mercy that you gave

Oh, hide me, hide me in the cleft of the rock
And let me see your glory as you pass me by

My hands are empty
I've tried and failed so many times
I cannot heal this hurt inside
But your love runs deeper
Than the blackest stain upon my soul
So I'm running to the arms that make me whole

Oh hide me, hide me in the cleft of the rock
And let me see your glory as you pass me by

Nothing less, nothing less than all you are is what I want
Open up, Open up my eyes
Won't you please
Nothing less, nothing less than all you are will ever be enough
Fill me up, fill me up
Till you're all I see
