I came across this song Everlasting Arms of Mike Scott's yesterday and I can feel the breeze of the Spirit in it. The Fear is not all there is, I will live, I will be carried, God's great boundary crossing love is irrepressible. It's a crack in it all and today this is enough.
May you find yourself in the embrace of God and the Truth of who you are. I love you my friend.
Lord hold me
In Your everlasting arms
Enfold me
In Your everlasting arms
Let striving cease
That I may come to rest
In perfect peace
Renewed and truly blessed
Lord bathe me
In Your everlasting light
Lord raise me
In Your everlasting light
Awake my mind
That I may understand
And come to find
The truth of who I am
Above the silvery bay
A bird rose on the breeze
Then swooped as if to say
You too may fly with ease
Lord lift me
In Your everlasting love
Home swiftly
In Your everlasting love
I'll go to where
A temple stands upon a hill
In silence there
I'll wait upon Your will
Lord lift me
In Your everlasting arms
In Your everlasting arms
Everlasting arms
Everlasting arms
In Your everlasting
Everlasting arms
Dude,
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this... and thanks for the link to the youtube page. (As I have said, poetry goes down easier for me with a backing track). These are words I can sing with integrity and honesty regardless of my current "understanding". Lately, I have given up on having my mind awakened to find the truth of who I am. Yet somehow I can sing along and only hope.
Thanks again... and I am working on a post in response to this.
