My hands are ready to create something new
My soul is open to all that is true
Come in however You wish please do
Thousands of miles across the world
New colors paint streaks in my head
Red, green, and gold overcome cobwebs
This goes against all I have been told
This story of beauty and joy is possible
I am aching for a new way to say
How this flower is blooming again
I am longing for a new script to this play
And believing all the world is a stage
Come to me truth, run into my arms
Embrace me and whisper the secrets of old
I don’t have the answers anymore
Windows flung wide open I hear streets below
Calling out for justice and peace
Beckoning my pen to come alive with stories dying to be told
My eyes are ready for a new scene
My heart is thirsty for grace found in You
Come in however You wish please do
Distant lands the beautiful
Faces pass I see one, finally one
”Wherever you are, be all there”
I have searched my whole life, now I am done
Welcome contentment this is your home
Now I am happy
Now I am loved
Now I know I am never alone
New scents ride on the wind and I breathe them in
I allow them to imprint tracks on my memory
Here will be forever a part of me
My hands are ready to create something new
My soul is open to all that is true
Come in however you wish please do
Morning’s here again and I throw back the
curtains and let the light shine in
Laughter visited me last night in between awake
and a dream
I have never felt a joy so real
And it’s all because I know You
Only you can create something so new
My eyes have found new scenery
My heart has found grace in you
You have come in and stirred up my world
Shook me through and through
