Lyrics
I am broken like a beggar,
begging for richer weather.
When I run I run with questions,
questioning hollow intentions.
I am burnt, by the tide,
tidings told, by the Son.
Sometimes I’m dead to all this living.
Dying just to feel alive.
I don’t want to close my eyes anymore.
I’ve seen too much of darkness.
Give me a lion’s courage --
the sea wave’s loyalty.
I look out, see a revelation.
Dry bones spin their revolutions.
Tiny spines constructing space:
Grace has sewn Her masterpiece.
Missing pieces find a solace --
and here I stand: within a skin.
I hold Hope as my dagger,
shadow-boxing shoulder-blades.
Every seed saw a darkness.
Every dusk sees a dawning.
Every valley finds its peak.
Every puzzle finds its peace.
We hold Love in our hearts.
We had Love from the start.
We were built without our fears.
We are known by these tears.
I don’t want to close my eyes anymore.
I’ve seen too much of darkness.
Give me a lion’s courage --
the sea wave’s loyalty.
