    I am looking for a song that I used as a sermon topic back in fall 2001 or spring 2002. The words are something like:

    26 letters is all I have, 26 letters is not enough letters to make the words I need to say.

    The song is about how 26 letters can not express the words about what God try means to the artist.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Pete

    I found it for you. (I took a wild stab at the name of the song, and hit it!)
    It's by Ben Glover, and called "26 Letters".
    I think this is the one, atleast

    I can't for a sentence
    To save my life
    I try to coin a phrase
    But I can't make it sound right
    I feel helpless
    A little dumb
    I'm an educated fool
    With a brain gone numb
    All I wanna do is let You know that You
    You had the heart to change the heart of me
    You took me to a love I never knew

    Chorus:
    26 letters is all I got
    To tell You how I feel about You
    26 letters and you know I'm never ever
    Gonna write the perfect paragraph
    I try to express
    With adjectives of thankfulness
    But, I don't know if I can do it
    With 26 letters

    I could be a scholar
    I could be a sage
    I could write a million books
    And be the latest rage
    I still can't say enough
    For what You've done for me
    With this limited vocabulary
    All I wanna do is let You know that You
    You had the heart to change the heart of me
    You took me to a love I never knew

    Repeat Chorus

    On and on and on I go
    With limited descriptive prose
    And I give up 'cause I've said it all before
