Holy Now |
When I was a girl, each week |
On Sunday, we would go to church |
And pay attention to the priest |
And he would read the holy word |
And consecrate the holy bread |
And everyone would kneel and bow |
Today the only difference is |
Everything is holy now |
Everything, everything |
Everything is holy now |
When I was in Sunday school |
We would learn about the time |
Moses split the sea in two |
Jesus made the water wine |
And I remember feeling sad |
That miracles don’t happn still |
But now I can’t keep track |
'Cause everything’s a miracl |
Everything, Everything |
Everything’s a miracle |
Wine from water is not so small |
But an even bigger magic trick |
Is that anything is here at all |
So the challenging thing becomes |
Not to look for miracles |
But finding where there isn’t one |
When holy water was rare at best |
It barely wet my fingertips |
But now I have to hold my breath |
Like I’m swimming in a sea of it |
I used to see a world half there |
Heaven’s second rate hand-me-down |
But I walk it with a reverent air |
'Cause everything is holy now |
Everything, everything |
Everything is holy now |
Read a questioning child’s face |
And say it’s not a testament |
That’d be very hard to say |
See another new morning come |
And say it’s not a sacrament |
I tell you that it can’t be done |
This morning, outside I stood |
And saw a little red-winged bird |
Shining like a burning bush |
Singing like a scripture verse |
It made me want to bow my head |
I remember when church let out |
How things have changed since then |
‘Cause everything is holy now |
It used to be a world half-there |
Heaven’s second rate hand-me-down |
But I walk it with a reverent air |
'Cause everything is holy now |
Everything, everything |
Everything is holy now |
Everything, everything |
Everything is holy now |
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah holy now |
Everything is holy now |
Holy now |
