Can you hear it?
Don’t get near it.
The voices of the needy
Will fade away.

Just ignore it.
You deplore it.
The cries of the poor
Disturb your day.

Can’t avoid it.
Who destroyed it?
“They’ll always be among us.”
Is what they say.

I can’t live this way anymore.
Crumbling under this love You outpour.
Can’t seem to face the One I adore.
Anymore.

Living the life of a pretender,
Teach me to surrender.
You’re nibbling at my heart
It’s the place you start…and never stop.

I can’t live this way anymore.
Tumbling like a wave washed ashore.
Can’t face the One who restores.
Anymore.

I just want to learn how to soar.
Allow me to hear Your thunder.
Transplant Your desires and wonders.
Forgiven of yesterday’s blunders…we move on.

I can live this way everyday.
Transformed by the One I’ve ignored.
Embraced by the One I adore.
Forevermore.
