Being Small Lyrics

Jimmy Needham Being Small

Why I wanna be a hurricane
When I'm barely a breeze
'Cause I've already seen Your storm
Bring me down to my knees

Just when we think we made it high enough
You knock us back to the ground
We are trying to move up fast
Can't see the contrast
Of how the King came down

'Cause I can't build my towers higher
And live inside Your fire, no no, no no, no

Whenever I climb too high
Keep my feet off the ground
And when I get full of me
Turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer
Come before the fall
So if it's You that's getting bigger
I don't mind being small
Being small

Maybe if I shout real loud
Maybe then I'll draw a crowd
And they'll finally cheer
Or maybe I should tone down
Never make a sound now
Anything to draw them near

Or maybe there's more to life
Than trying to make a name
Even though they say it ain't so
So maybe I should step on down
Hand off the kings crown
To the God on the throne

'Cause I can't build my towers higher
And live inside Your fire, no no, no no, no

Whenever I climb too high
Keep my feet off the ground
And if I get full of me
Turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer
Come before the fall
So if it's You that's getting bigger
I don't mind being small

These people won't miss me
I'll be out of their memories
The ground will forget me for sure
Only one is remembered
One name to be treasured, is Yours

So now when I climb too high
Keep my feet from the ground
And if I get full of me
Turn me upside down
You know pride and not just summer
Come before the fall

So maybe hopefully I see less of me
And more of you and its true
I'll be finally free
That's what I want after all

Whenever I climb too high
Keep my feet off the ground
And if I get full of me
Turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer
Come before the fall
So if it's You that's getting bigger
I don't mind being small

Being small
Being small
Being small

Being small
Being small
Being small
