Actually that song was inspired by a conversation she had with a co-worker (when she used to be a HS teacher) when he unexpectedly asked her what she believed in. And she just hit him with the big theology that she remembered for some class she had years ago. When she went home she felt like she had just really blew it and the entire thing was a flop...a missed opportunity to explain personally what she believes. So she sat down at the piano and wrote "Conversations"...
So it really is a personal spiritual experience. I guess you are asking more what does GOD do for us...that is a hard one to explain too...A simple and basic response for me would be the fact that I am able to get out of bed every morning and enjoy another day...
Once you experience it, and sit down and take it all in...i just MATTERS!

Show me the love that never fails
The compassion and attention
Midst confusion and dissention
Like small ramparts for the soul
How it matters
Like a single cup of water
How it matters
