Destiny's Claim

Monday, February 07, 2005

Surely there must be something more
Than cheap slippers priced at four
Surely there must be something greater
Surely there must be a forever

We don't look up at the stars above anymore
Nor the clouds passing by
We just hide when the skies begin to pour
We've forgotten the brilliant blue sky

Touch a star, fade the night away
The heavens above in their grand display
How could we have forgotten this grand array
Content to see our lives fade slowly into gray

Spinning around, we spin from night to day
We put on our masks and pretend we're ok
I know there's more but we're too easily content
With getting more things that simply leave us spent

Dear God above, the wonder that is your love
Is greater far than any treasure trove
Help me to see this precious eternity
Before my life fades into forgotten history

Breathe a sigh, shed the years away
Shed a tear, bid the sorrow stay
If we could grieve and cease with all our play
Perhaps we'll realise things are really not ok

Your love is light it has always been
Shine through the night till all our lives are seen
Help us to gaze up once again at your light
Help us to stop our spinning
Grant us sight

I will not offer anything to Him, that cost me nothing.
