Wonder (Spontaneous)

Bethel Music's song "Wonder (Spontaneous)" is a heartfelt plea to retain a sense of awe and wonder in the face of divine beauty. The lyrics emphasize the importance of maintaining a childlike perspective, one that is wide-eyed and mystified by the splendor of the divine. This childlike wonder is not just about innocence but about a pure, unfiltered appreciation for the beauty and majesty of the divine, referred to as the 'king' in the song. The repetition of the phrase "May we never lose our wonder" serves as a mantra, reinforcing the desire to keep this sense of awe alive in our hearts and minds.

The song also highlights the beauty of the divine in all its ways, urging listeners to close their eyes and open the eyes of their hearts to truly see and appreciate this beauty. This is a call to a deeper, more spiritual form of seeing, one that goes beyond the physical and taps into a more profound, emotional, and spiritual experience. The lyrics suggest that this kind of seeing can lead to a fascination with the divine, a state where one is continually captivated and inspired by the love and glory of the divine presence.

Bethel Music, known for their contemporary worship music, often focuses on themes of divine love, beauty, and spiritual awakening. In "Wonder (Spontaneous)", they encapsulate these themes through a simple yet powerful message: to never lose the sense of wonder and awe that can bring us closer to the divine. The song serves as a reminder to keep our hearts open and our spirits attuned to the beauty that surrounds us, encouraging a continuous, childlike fascination with the divine.
