Speechless

Another song by Steven Curtis Chapman...

My words fall like drops of rain.
My lips are like clouds.
I've said so many things, trying to figure you out.
As mercy opens my eyes, my words are stolen away.
At this breathtaking view of your grace...

And I am Speechless
I'm astonished and amazed
I am silenced by your wondrous grace.
You have saved me
You have raised me from the grave.
And I am Speechless
In your presence now.
I'm astounded as I consider how
You have shown us the love that leaves us speechless.

So what kind of love can this be
That will trade heaven's throne for a cross?
To think that you still celebrate
For finding just one who was lost.
To know you rejoice over this
The God of this whole universe.
It's a story too great for words...

We are speechless
Oh how great is the love
The Father has lavished upon us,
That we should be called the sons and daughters of God

We are speechless
We stand in awe of your mercy
You have saved us
(from the grave)
We are speechless

Well, I'm not sure of the best place to put this, so I am putting it here. :) I discovered that youtube has some Cocteau Twins videos that are just the song playing with the album cover displayed. (Apparently they didn't make any music videos? I'm not sure.) Here are some of my favorites:

Ivo

Pandora

Aloysius

They are Scottish, BTW. This album is from 1984 (the drum machine gives it away also, lol).
