Voicing My Soul

The words that had taken flight

And left a desolate plain behind –

My comfort on a stormy day

And my shelter from the rain

Returned to my mind

Returned to me

So I can craft

And form

And shape

And voice out loud

My soul that pleads

To speak

Touch the Sky

Lyrics
What fortunes lies beyond the stars
Those dazzling heights too vast to climb
I got so high to fall so far
But I found heaven as love swept low

My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground

What treasure waits within Your scars
This gift of freedom gold can’t buy
I bought the world and sold my heart
You traded heaven to have me again

My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground

Find me here at Your feet again
Everything I am, reaching out, I surrender
Come sweep me up in Your love again
And my soul will dance
On the wings of forever [x2]

Crying Out

Dreams and tears
Visions and valleys
Words and thoughts
Passions and desires
Sorrow and pleasure
Blot the pages of my life
As the well of my tears
Merge them all into one
And still the cry of my heart
The call of my soul cries out
My soul cries out to be heard

Truth

You asked a question
Somehow
You knew where to press
My eyes filled with tears
I had to take a moment
Before I could reply
You have only just met me
But already
My truth is showing through
