lyrics

These days it feels like even God is on hold
The nights are so long, the days are so cold
And I don't feel convinced by the things I've been told
Sometimes faith doesn't come easy
The say grief is like a ball in a box
But it's no toy it's not fun, an immovable ox
I feel stuck in the vineyard, I can't find the fox
Would you quit stealing all my joy please?

All I want is to feel the touch of God
To be held in His embrace
To be eyelash to eyelash
To be warmed by the light of His face

Sometimes the world can feel so cruel
When you can't say goodbye to those closest to you
To think I'll see them again makes me feel like a fool
What if all we get is this life?
It's not that I don't believe in a God
But I just really miss her, she feels so far off
Does she look down on all of us from above
And have a big laugh or a cry?

All I want is to feel the touch of God
To be held in Her embrace
To be eyelash to eyelash
To be warmed by the light of Her face

Oh God can you just give me a sign
That your hand is holding mine?

Jessica Gerhardt Los Angeles, California

Jessica Gerhardt is an LA-native singer-songwriter whose style ranges from intimate ukulele-driven folk to anthemic indie rock. Her writing follows after fiery femme rock artists like Fiona Apple and Alanis Morissette, but with a distinct spiritual bent, inspired by Sufjan Stevens and Audrey Assad. She hopes her music points beyond itself, to the transcendent, and that it uplifts and heals. ... more
