Time In Between: A Reminder of What Easter is Really All About

Time in Between

Francesca Battistelli

You were there when Your Father said,

"Let there be light."

You obeyed when He whispered,

"Son, you have to leave tonight.

to spend nine months in a mother's womb,

three days in a borrowed tomb"

But it's the time in between

That brings me to my knees

Knowing You came for me

And all that I can't be

I'm amazed, so amazed

and I'm thankful for the time in between.

Don't take much for this crazy world

To rob me of my piece.

And the enemy of my soul

Says You're holding out on me.

So I stand here lifting empty hands

For You to fill me up again.

But it's the time in between

That I fall down to my knees

Waiting on what You'll bring

And the things I can't see

I know my song's incomplete

Still I'll sing for the time in between.

So many ways

You're love has saved the day

and I'm grateful for them all.

But it's the time in between

the middle of two thieves

That says everything

It's the reason I believe

I'm amazed, so amazed

and I thank You for the time in between
