Verse:
So many things I think about when I see Your face.
Things I know-things I ponder-things I’d like to pray
The more I think I know You, Lord, the greater You’re unknown
Trapped within my unbelief, and I am not alone.
Chorus 1:
Abba Father, capture my heart, carry it away.
Mysteries of Your light transcend the light of day.
Abba Father, come and be my Might in the face of Your Son.
Ancient truths stir the heart of this one.
Verse:
I sometimes catch a vision-a glimpse of what’s beyond
Not just my imagination leading me along.
More things than I can dream-You give beyond desire.
I repent my unbelief-You give me holy fire!
Chorus 2:
Abba Father, capture my heart, carry it away;
Natural seems to move in a supernatural ways
Abba Father –You are my Light, and my Guiding Star.
I feel Your power. It seems I know who You are.
Chorus 3:
Abba Father, capture my heart, carry it away;
Mysteries of Your light escape the light of day.
Abba Father –You are my Light, and my Guiding Star.
I feel the push and pull between the Light and the dark.

Author notes
A little fun.
I used to be a big Rush fan. I took the song "Mystic Rhythm" and made it a Christian song. When I hear the original I hear what I have above.
For those who don't know: "Abba" is aramaic for Daddy, the intimate version of father.
For those who'd like to hear the original: http://video.msn.com/video.aspx?mkt=en-us&vid=ce792857-e8b1-4829-8fc8-ae134238a900

Try playing the link in my Author's Comments to the video to hear the original song and see if you can hear how these words would play along with that.

Bravo!
The Ancient of Days, The Eternal One!!! And we call Him Abba Father! Amazing and mystifying. I love the insights and references. Praise Him!
Wonderful song. I dont know the Rush song, but this could be made into a song in and of itself. Maybe I will hear it on KLOV!!
God Bless,
