Being Small - Jimmy Needham

Why I wanna be a hurricane when I’m barely a breeze?

'Cause I’ve already seen Your storm bring me down to my knees

Just when we think we may be high enough

You knock us back to the ground

We are trying to move up fast, can’t see the contrast

Of how the King came down

'Cause I can’t build my towers higher

And live inside Your fire, no no no

Whenever I climb too high keep my feet on the ground

And when I get full of me turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer come before the fall

So if it’s You that’s getting bigger, I don’t mind

Being small, being small

Maybe if I shout real loud

Maybe then I’ll draw a crowd and they’ll finally cheer

Or maybe I should tone down, never make a sound now

Anything to draw them near

Or maybe there’s more to life than trying to make a name

Even though they say it ain’t so

So maybe I should step on down, hand off the king’s crown

To the God on the throne

'Cause I can’t build my towers higher

And live inside Your fire, no no no

Whenever I climb too high keep my feet on the ground

And when I get full of me turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer come before the fall

So if it’s You that’s getting bigger, I don’t mind being small

These people won’t miss me

I will be out of their memories

The ground will forget me for sure

Only One is remembered, one Name to be treasured

It’s Yours

So now when I climb too high keep my feet on the ground

And if I get full of me turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer come before the fall

So maybe hopefully I see less of me

And more of you and its true, I’ll be finally free

That’s what I want after all, yeah

Whenever I climb too high keep my feet on the ground

And when I get full of me turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer come before the fall

So if it’s You that’s getting bigger, I don’t mind

Being small, being small

Being small, being small

Being small, oh oh oh, yeah

Being small, oh oh oh oh

Being small
