Like a foolish dreamer that was trying to build
A highway to the sky
All my hopes would come tumblin down
And I never knew just why
Until today when You pulled away the clouds
That hung like curtains on my eyes.
Iive been blind all these wasted years when
I thought I was so wise.
But then You took me by surprise.
Like waking up from the longest dream
How real it seemed
Until Your love broke through
And I was lost in a fantasy
That blinded me
Until your love broke through.
All my life I have been searching
For that crazy missing part
And With one touch You just rolled away
The stone that held my heart,
Now I see that the answer was as easy
As just askin you in
And I am so sure I could never doubt
Your gentle touch again
It's like the power of the wind.
Like waking up from the longest dream
How real it seemed
Until Your love broke through
Ive been lost in a fantasy
That blinded me
Until your love broke through.
Like waking up from the longest dream
How real it seemed
Until Your love broke through
Until Your love broke through
For so many people this song tells their life Story. "Like a foolish dreamer, trying to build a highway to the sky". I first heard this from Keith Green's first album: For Those Who have Ears. It was my song again of thankfulness to God for entering my past, giving me Grace to live in the present and Mercy to see Him and bow before Him in the future. Please let this song touch you. Don't let the "world " attitude, that just because it is not in my accepted playlist I can't use the lyrics to draw you closer to the Saviour. If you do not see your life as a totally depraved sinner before a Holy God. The repeated phrase, Until your Love broke Through will not mean anything.
For Those Who have Ears!
Please Hear.
