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 |
