Indescribable

One night last week, I went for a run in preparation for one of my many races.  I had a particularly good run even though I didn't cover too many miles.  As I was heading back to my apartment, I hear Avalon's Indescribable on Pandora.  For some reason, the lyrics really spoke to me.  I even posted to Facebook about it, which I rarely do.  Anyway, I just wanted to share the lyrics with you.  This is a great song!

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea,

Creation's revealing Your majesty.

From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring,

Every creature unique in the song that it sings. All exclaiming...

(Chorus)

Indescribable, Uncontainable,

You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.

You are amazing God.

All powerful, untameable,

Awestruck we fall to our knees and we humbly proclaim,

You are amazing God.

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go,

Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow?

Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light,

Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night?

None can fathom...

(Chorus)

Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light,

Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night?

(Chorus)

Incomparable, Unchangeable,

You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same.

You are amazing God.

As I was listening, I looked up into the night sky only to see ZERO stars, but for some reason that was even more of a reassurance to me that God is in total control.  I've always been upset that you can't see stars in NYC (well, outside of on Broadway of course...haha).  Seriously though, it has always made me feel strange to look up into a totally blank sky.  According to Yahoo! Answers, it is due to light pollution...and there is definitely a lot of that in NYC, especially where I live.  I guess the good news for a traveller like me is that the stars (along with a lot of other great people and fun places) are available just a short bus/train/plane ride away for now.
