Big Enough

A Chris Rice cover.

Lyrics:

None of us knows and that makes it a mystery
If life is a comedy, then why all the tragedy
Three-and-a-half pounds of brain try to figure out
What this world is all about
And is there an eternity, is there an eternity?

God if You're there I wish You'd show me
And God if You care then I need You to know me
I hope You don't mind me askin' the questions
But I figure You're big enough
I figure You're big enough

Lying on pillows we're haunted and half-awake
Does anyone hear us pray, "If I die before I wake"
Then the morning comes and the mirror's the other place
Where we wrestle face to face with the image of Deity
The image of Deity

God if You're there I wish You'd show me
And God if You care then I need You to know me
I hope You don't mind me askin' the questions
But I figure You're big enough
I figure You're big enough

When I imagine the size of the universe
And I wonder what's out past the edges
Then I discover inside me a space as big
And believe that I'm meant to be
Filled up with more than just questions

So, God if You're there I wish You'd show me
And God if You care then I need You to know me
I hope You don't mind me askin' the questions
But I figure You're big enough
I figure You're big enough

Child I am here, in My Word I'll show you,
That I am the God, who just wants to know you.
No I don't mind that your asking the questions,
Cause I, know your not big enough,
I know your not big enough.
Cause, I'm the One big enough.

ey I really like this song and the last verse that you added make it better(I think so). My english is not good, so could you please write down for me the last verse. Thanks a lot.

[lladnekj]

I have posted all the Lyrics including the last Chorus in the video info.

[jsalli39]

I noticed you added a last verse. Did the original song not sit well with you as it was? Did you write those words yourself?

[lladnekj]

The original song was really good but I did think that there needed to be an answer to all the questions, and that is what inspired me to write that last chorus.

[URNtheloop]

Very nice. Thank you for sharing this. I am showing this at my church service on Friday.

[atpdancerchick]

You did an amazing job on this song<3

It is one of my favorites!

[Quantanthead]

Good job.

[ItsOnlyBeautifulMe]

I like it. I have been listining to the original song on my ipod over and over trying to get deeper meaning from it. I like this one, it shows that someone else has thought as much about this song as I have. Thanks.

[daydreambeliever121]

amazing cover! this is one of my favorite songs of all time and you have a great voice for it

If Chris Rice wanted to make a legal issue out of this, which I highly doubt he would, Lladnekj could always just remove the video. Why do people like you make such a big deal out of these things?

[JacksGuitarStudents]

What legal issues? Give me a break! This is his interpretation! He's not doing it for profit! If he were to put it on a CD for sale someday, he'd no doubt get permission! The verse he added at the end is how he deals with the questions. You're entitled to your own opinion, obviously, but what's the use of anyone going to the trouble of performing someone else's song if one doesn't make it personal to oneself?

[Giantsquidsrock]

I love this song, especially your way. Good job!
