Anna

Anna I've been thinkin' about you a whole lot lately
Your faithful heart and your humble soul
How you gave your life to the service of God's temple
In Jerusalem so long ago
Daughter of Phanuel from the tribe of Asher
A prophetess of eighty-four
In the midst of another day of prayer and fasting
When they brought their newborn to the Lord
What was it like to hold the baby Jesus in your arms
Did your eyes sparkle and shine
Did he remind you
That you dreamt of one day bearing your own children
When your husband was still by your side
Did you feel peace or bitterness as that picture faded
After only seven years a bride
How did you know that He was Israel's redemption
Did the Spirit whisper here I am
Did you sing and shout did you cry out in jubilation
As you took him from Simeon
What was it like to hold the baby Jesus in your arms
Could you see the cross and the grave
How He would save us
Anna I've been thinking about you a whole lot lately
You could teach me how to dwell
In God's presence and on the beauty of His blessings
I wish The Word had more to tell
How I wish The Word had more to tell
Ooooh
