Wandering Through the Pages (Acoustic Worship)

Verse 1

I opened up the book again

Dusty spine

But the words still breathe

Stories in the margins

Names I barely know

But it feels like they remember me

A boy with just a slingshot

A sea split like a curtain wide

A table in the desert sand

Bread and mercy on every side

Chorus

I’m just wandering through the pages

But You keep finding me first

In the wars and in the cages

In the blessing and the curse

From the garden to the manger

Every line keeps calling me

I’m just wandering through the pages

You’re the one I always see

Verse 2

Prophets in the midnight

Writing out their broken hearts

Prisoners singing in the dark

Chains fall quiet as the song starts

A teacher on a hillside

Feeding crowds with a borrowed lunch

A cross on a lonely hill

Empty stone where the world woke up (oh)

Chorus

I’m just wandering through the pages

But You keep finding me first

In the wars and in the cages

In the blessing and the curse

From the garden to the manger

Every line keeps calling me

I’m just wandering through the pages

You’re the one I always see

Bridge

Every promise

Every Psalm

Every whisper

Every storm

All the questions I still hold

You have heard them all before

So I read like a child again

Let the letters lead me home

Every chapter

Every end

Leaves me less and less alone

Chorus

I’m just wandering through the pages

But You keep finding me first

In the wars and in the cages

In the blessing and the curse

From the garden to the manger

Every line keeps calling me

I’m just wandering through the pages

You’re the one I always see
