More Than A Thousand Words Lyrics - Petra

Words and music by Bob Hartman 

Based on Romans 8: 26 

I saw Your picture hanging on the wall 

Just an artist rendering that was all 

The way You looked down in Your agony 

Jogged my memory 

And helped me to see 

If a picture's worth a thousand words 

Then it won't help me at all 

Only words are never gonna say 

What I feel for You today

(Chorus) 

More than a thousand words won't say 

More than my life will not repay 

More than a thousand things I do 

Won't make it up to You 

I stopped a moment sitting all alone 

Without a waiting call on the phone 

Looked like a picture from a magazine 

More serenity than I've ever seen 

And if words cannot describe this day 

Or the beauty of this scene 

Tell me, how can I expect the words I say 

To reflect the things I mean 

More than a thousand words won't tell 

How You forgave me when I fell 

More than a thousand words won't do 

To say I love You 

Photos 

Simple words will never quite express 

My gratitude to You 

Until I cross the barrier 

Mortal words will have to do
