Can You Teach Me
Just today
I awoke with a feeling
Of something new
Something’s here
Just as real as can be
And yet hidden from view
It was there all along
Buried down so deep inside
Stumbling through my nighttime of darkness
I tried to make the other side
To that place
Where the fire was warm
And would draw me near
Melting away
Every doubt in my head
Every single fear
I’ve been wandering far
Often lost and often alone
Now I see it was right hereinside me
Inviting me to come on home
Oh can You teach me to be loved
And can You teach me to receive
The bounty of Your endless grace, yeah
And give me reason to believe
There’s something greater than me
It was You
In the warmth of the sun
In the stars at night
It was You, You were there
In the child who was holding
My hand so tight
You were there all along
Quietly You called out my name
Speaking through all those who have loved me
You’ve touched me and I’m not the same
(Middle Eight)
You have opened my eyes
And I see You everywhere
I must open my heart now
And let You show me
How much You care
Oh teach me!
When I looked at the cross
When I would partake of the bread
You were in there with Your arms reaching
Hoping that the word be said
I say it!
Oh will You teach me to be loved
And will you teach me to receive
The bounty of Your endless grace, yeah
You gave me reason to believe
I believe!
Oh will You teach me to be loved
And will you teach me to receive
The bounty of Your endless grace, yeah
You gave me reason to believe
There’s something greater than me
