Nichole Nordeman - Tremble lyrics

rate me

Have I come too casually?<br />

Because it seems to me<br />

There's something I've neglected<br />

How does one approach a Deity<br />

with informality<br />

And still protect the Sacred?<br />

<br />

'Cause you came and chose to wear the skin of all of us<br />

And it's easy to forget You left a throne<br />

<br />

And the line gets blurry all the time<br />

Between daily and Divine<br />

And it's hard to know the difference<br />

<br />

Oh, let me not forget to tremble<br />

Oh, let me not forget to tremble<br />

Face down on the ground do I dare<br />

To take the liberty to stare at you<br />

Oh, let me not,<br />

Oh, let me not forget to tremble<br />

<br />

What a shame to think that I'd appear<br />

Even slightly cavalier<br />

In the matter of salvation<br />

Do I claim this gift You freely gave<br />

As if it were mine to take<br />

With such little hesitation?<br />

<br />

'Cause you came and stood among the very least of us<br />

And it's easy to forget you left a throne<br />

<br />

Oh, let me not forget to tremble<br />

Oh, let me not forget to tremble<br />

Face down on the ground do I dare<br />

To take the liberty to stare at you<br />

Oh, let me not<br />

Oh, let me not forget to tremble<br />

<br />

The cradle of the grave could not contain Your Divinity<br />

Neither can I oversimplify this love<br />

<br />

Oh, let me not forget to tremble<br />

<br />

Face down on the ground do I dare<br />

To take the liberty to stare at you<br />

Oh, let me<br />

Oh, let me not forget to tremble
