I Can Feel It (Live In Atlanta, GA 2006) Lyrics
I seek the silence through the chaos and the noise That's when I'm listening; I want to hear Your voice Sometimes it softly speaks, a whisper on the wind Sometimes it's louder when Your Spirit rushes in
I can feel it all around me I can feel it all around me
I keep on searching for Your presence in this place I see your hand at work, I feel Your touch of grace Sometimes it falls like rain upon this thirsty land Sometimes You gently stir the heart of every man
I can feel it I can feel it I can feel Your heartbeat
I pray You'd send Your presence down, Send it down Fill us with Your Spirit now
Song Description: 'Song ideas can come from all kinds of different places. Some of my favorites have been those which have been sparked by conversation. The idea for 'I Can Feel It' came from a conversation I was having with some friends about the Holy Spirit. One of them was sharing about how he's seen the Spirit show up in different ways at different times. This was one of those concepts that didn't quite make sense to me at first, but on thinking about it, it had to make sense. This song reflects my desire to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit to the point that I can both 'feel' it showing up, and also have a sense of how it's showing up. I look forward to playing this one live because it could serve as a cool invocation for the Holy Spirit to come down and be a part of our show. It's interesting that an old-school Pentecostal song like 'I Can Feel It' can appear on the same record as a more liturgical song like 'Communion'. This goes along with the message of unity we've been talking about since the Come Together days. We come from different denominational backgrounds and traditions. Rather than bicker about those differences, we can learn from each other and be the Body of Christ we are called to be.' - Mark Lee (Third Day)
