"What do I know of holy?"

this song is great.

i love the lyrics:
 "I think I've made you too small, I never feared you at all. If you touched my face, would I know you; looked into my eyes, could I behold you? What do I know of you who spoke me into motion? Where have I even stood but the soil along your ocean. Are you fire or are you fury? Are you sacred, are you beautiful?

And the girl who sings it, sings with such a pleading and dismayed, yet curious and hopeful voice. It's a song that comes to grips with realizing the distance from God, but also realizing there IS a greater intimacy that she has yet to come close with but desperately longs for.

Jesus, I love you and I want you, but what do I know of holy? What do I know of you?
