*7/14/06 I apologize for the lack of songs and for the lack of vocals in the one song we do have up. We've only been together for a short period and haven't really had enough time to record anything else. The quality of the song isn't too great either, as I'm sure you can tell. Fortunatly, we'll soon be recording with professional recording equipment thanks to a local producer we know and we'll have alot more songs up, hopefully with some vocals this time. I just wanted to go ahead and get the account up and working for when we do get our shit together. Hopefully, some of you will at least be slightly intrigued by our sound and will continue to check back for updates. Thanks. - Hilaree

My Window
Yield Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Written by Peter, Music by Yield)
I sit at
My window
Looking out at it all
I wonder
Who's it for?
Chorus:
Then I realize It's all there for him
The mighty creator
The one and the only
The almighty God
He made me
He made you
So wonderfully done
You're so great God
Praise to you Lord
What a joy to behold!
I Know
I Don't
Realize the things God does for me
Every day
Every was
Sometimes we don't stop to see
Sometimes we don't stop to
See what God has done
In the song "My Window" by Yield, the singer is sitting by the window, gazing out at the world, and pondering its meaning. They muse over who the world is for and its purpose, before realizing that it is all for the almighty God. The creator of everything, including the singer and the listener, is being praised for the wondrous creation they have crafted. Yield then concludes that it's easy to miss the things that God does for us, often taken for granted or missed altogether.
The lyrics of this song appear to acknowledge a divine power that exists beyond human comprehension. The singer is humbly accepting that everything in their world has a purpose, and that purpose is based on an all-knowing and all-powerful creator's plan. Yield is using this song to express the wonder and awe they have for the world, as well as their gratitude towards God.

I sit at
I am sitting at
My window
Next to my window
Looking out at it all
Observing every detail outside
I wonder
I question myself
Who's it for?
What is the purpose of it?
Why is it there?
What made it exist?
Then I realize It's all there for him
I come to the understanding that everything is created for God
The mighty creator
The powerful maker
The one and the only
The sole and incomparable
The almighty God
The all-powerful deity
He made me
I am created by Him
He made you
You are created by Him
So wonderfully done
He created us marvelously
You're so great God
You are immense, God
Praise to you Lord
Worship and praise to You, Lord
What a joy to behold!
It's such a bliss to witness this glory!
I Know
I am cognizant of the fact
I Don't
I'm not aware of
Realize the things God does for me
I fail to acknowledge what God does for me
Every day
On a daily basis
Every was
All times
Sometimes we don't stop to see
Occasionally we don't pause to perceive
Sometimes we don't stop to
Now and then we don't take a break to
See what God has done
Comprehend what God has accomplished
