Adonai
Adonai: Unveiling Divine Love Through Gaze and Song
Lyrics
When I survey, all that you are.
Reflecting on and assessing everything that defines you
..like those hands that pierced for me. Are the same that hold my heart.
The hands that experienced pain for the speaker also offer care and hold their emotions
And when I gaze into those loving eyes...
Looking deeply into loving eyes
that saw the cross ahead
Those eyes foresaw the crucifixion
and yet saw me as the prize
Even knowing the sacrifice ahead, those eyes valued the speaker
No wonder that is, many that know this love That sing, holy, holy, holy, God majesty. There's nothing that seems to compare,
Many who comprehend this love express reverence for God's majesty through singing "holy"
Oh, my heart canʼt help but sing... your name
The speaker's heart naturally sings the name of the divine
Adonai
Addressing the divine as "Adonai"
'donai

You see me just, just as I ought to be. You fashion me to be just like you... ....perfect and complete.
The divine sees the speaker as they should be, shaping them to be similar to the divine - faultless and whole
So, Iʼll sing...
The speaker commits to singing
