You could be a songbird
It’d be okay
Sing in any octave
Sing throughout the day
I stay in prayerful quiet
Only God can hear
A lifetime filled with harmony
A songbird in my ear
You could be a songbird
It’d be okay
Sing in any octave
Sing throughout the day
I stay in prayerful quiet
Only God can hear
A lifetime filled with harmony
A songbird in my ear
What of the bitter
Since I’ve known sweet
When I’ve caused distance
You’ve drawn me near
I cannot unknow
Understanding You’ve giv’n
If there be cracks in cement
We’ll place jewels there
For flowers
Not weeds shall grow here
As I stay busy
At the beauty
I will leave fate
To tell of the somehow
That beautiful minds think
Alike
From somewhere far, lament sings
Nearer still, there’s hope’s eased breath
Tho’ sad’s strings stir me
The Unknown’s my best friend
it is complete
it goes ’round and around
and it binds and bounds
encircles, ensnares
’til it brings
good hearts downthe rodeo clown
tires not from attempts
to dissuade to distract
to destroy
the bolting and bucking
the fall of reason
