The Hum


So many things that i need to say..
How to say? What to say?
So many things that i could say..
Wonder how it will sound, When i say..

So maybe, I'll hold my silence before
The king of kings and my lord
Or maybe, maybe...
I'll hum a melody....

Hmmmm..hm..hm..hmmmmm (4)

I long for your presence
Touch me in my silence..

Hmmmm..hm..hm..hmmmmm (4)

end: hallelujah (4)

This song was composed during the third week of November, 2007, on my way to the factory.
That whole week I was overwhelmed by a newer understanding of who God is and that fact so moved me that I realised that the best of my words for God were so feeble and so far away from what he truly deserves and I realised that it is better to hold silence before the Most High God...
As I was thinking about the Chorus, I was reminded of Paul telling the Ephesians to make music in their heart for God (Eph5:19). How else could that music inside be expressed other than by humming it out...
It's a simple yet powerful worship song and I can imagine a big group humming it before God and it would truly be very fantastic...
The very first time I sang it in the church, everyone was touched intensly...
Its close to what David says in Psalm 42 about: 'deep calls unto deep'...
Surely, one of the songs for our forthcoming English album...!!
Written and composed in Nov 16 & 17, 2007

its a beautiul song...the one that u would love to hum when u r left speechless before God's warm presence n your heart melts away to nothin but a song to hum.when the inner music for Jesus overpowers words...this is the song u feel like humming.

These are the songs I have written and the stories behind them. Hope it inspires a few of you to write your own songs too (THIS SITE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION)
