we people are a funny mix don’t you think or at least i am anyway sometimes the sun is shining smiles and laughs no room for whining like i want to photograph every moment capture the rapturous mood i’m in and at the same time no really at the same time rain pours down all around this town of memories that sprouts like massive trees in a forest of lies and shame and why’s and pain and ties to the past that seem to last like a long sad song so i pray break through in rays of hope and light dear Lord help me regain my sight and “though the wrong seems often so strong” You will make all things right ‘cause You’re writing a story full of downpours and clouds writing a story of songs sung out loud of Your love and Your glory of the way that you carry this tale called my life in Your everlasting arms i am choosing to rest to stop and embrace the things i don't see to silently wait to just.... be and see you breakthrough all the rainy and cloudy in me breakthrough and one day make all things new
would like to see a few things stay the untroubled giggles of a child a sunset that kaleidoscopes for hours an embrace that fills my heart with peace a haunting melody that sinks into my soul and reminds me that there is love
would like to see a few things stay the knowing when our eyes connect the crashing waves and their rhythmic balm the birdsong soaring through the sad sky colors leaping from a flower spilling on my heavy brow reminding me that there is life
would like to see a few things stay a tree that shades me from all harm a crystal river of understanding shadows stretching through deep green woods the Light that helps me see the Way a hand to hold that guides through the pain reminding me that someone’s there to share a lonely road
oh stay with me lover of my soul let me see the calm before i lose myself nowhere to go the words of life spoken long ago an anchor for an old old soul reminding me that You are here in the mess in my tears reminding me that You are rest
is there a sunrise in all that is setting in me will all the shadows in this blackhole that is me finally flee o rise great Light of mine please rise i’m overwhelmed inside so rise great Light of mine please rise i don’t know where to go so great Light of mine rise i keep leaving the same place i’ve been here before i surrender again remember again the story of me is yours o rise great Light of mine please rise won’t you hear my cries and rise please still my wandering heart start something new inside great Light of mine rise there’s a never ending dawn i long to see i’ll cast aside these anchors finally free i’ll be just the me you always dreamed for me and just rest so rise great Light of mine please rise i’ve got another step to take i can’t bear all the weight but i choose to wait for you great Light of mine please rise
o sunset sky i wonder if you cry as you say goodbye to all this day has left behind o sunset sky would you stay with me and cry my sunset sky
o sunset sky what do you see as darkness falls around me this pain and loss and mystery i cannot see what lies before me o sunset sky won’t you cry for me
o sunset sky i know you try to make smile all that fire in the sky it leaps so high and fills my world with colors and beauty and wonder and that ache in my heart just starts again so goodbye my sunset sky goodbye
what do i see when i see me let's see i suppose i see what i want to see and at times i see what i long to be at times i'm such a selfie self is proud and can be so loud i can push away by the words i say those i say i love why am i that way if my attitude or my words hurt you please forgive me i hope you can see a way to forgive me i suppose i need to see through eyes that are not mine but belong to the One who makes me whole and sees all that makes me me and when i'm known by the One who knows all that's inside i can decide that i won't hide anymore Lord help me see my wife and kids the family my friends my neighbor too and say no to self and live to serve Lord help me let go of me and be free to love to give to be alive to others and die to me and be free
so i think that we should sing about the sad sad shadows why do i keep remembering their darkened glance it seems that they want to dance into the story and at any moment the sad sad shadows fall on me so about those sad sad shadows inside those weathered picture frames a broken promise here something undone there framed fractures and failures each one calls my name and the struggle starts again with one word oh the shadow of shame falls on me so listen sad sad shadows i remembered today that you don’t have to stay you’re not the whole story Light and Glory can rewrite your songs mend all the wrongs and scatter the darkness not just for a moment but for eternity all these parts of me will be restored once more oh sad sad shadow the final say will not be yours the Light will end the night and all the sad sad shadows will go away and there will be only Light
there is a river of love coming down for us flowing down for us my Lord there is a river of hope reaching out for us speaking into us my Lord i don’t know what to make of this world anymore i’m tired of crying want to see a different shore i don’t know what to make of these anxious thoughts i don’t think i can take all this pain we’ve wrought my Lord here’s my life here’s my heart there is a river of peace oh He’s here for me oh He’s here for you my Lord there is a river of life washing over us healing all of us my Lord i don’t know what to make of this world anymore i’m tired of crying want to see a different shore i don’t know what to make of this sadness inside just want to be awake on the other side my Lord here’s my life here’s my heart there is a river of light shining in the dark singing in my heart my Lord there is a river of time forever i am yours forever i am yours my Lord forever i am yours my Lord
i saw and heard the dawn sing color songs that danced in my mind though my eyes saw the beauty solace i could not find i wondered what song was sung by the sky to other sets of eyes that wept for peace shut tight in disbelief in a land covered with grievous dawns unbearable loss hovers over the streets like so many tear drops ever falling that never drain the ocean of sorrow and pain i pray for new dawns singing color songs children dancing sing along for joy and light to fill each soul and peace to fall in stillness let peace fall in stillness
listen listen can you hear this mother cry her daughter is gone such a sad sad song she cries it’s just all wrong listen listen can you hear this daddy cry he lost his boy such a sad gray song he cries it’s just all wrong oh great Light have mercy now have mercy now mommy cries have mercy now have mercy now daddy doesn’t know what to do oh great Light break through oh great Light break through listen listen can you hear the silence of the children cry laughter gone such a sad sad song the silence cries listen listen can you hear the heartbeat sound you have life so lay it down yes lay it down all around all around the world is crying now oh great Light have mercy now have mercy now mommy cries have mercy now have mercy now daddy doesn’t know what to do oh great Light break through oh great Light break through
