You're the light of my life
Your son the water I drink
Silencer to all the disquieting things that I think
You've given me air
And the warmth you've put in my bones
Which has grown to be a fire that I cannot ignore
How could I ask you to give more than you already have?
Yet here I am again asking strength from your hand
You've given us this earth
But in my whole life I've never felt at home
But as long as I'm with you I'll never be alone
So long as you're with me I'll never be alone
I gave up fearing the grave
For all the coldness inside of me told me I wasn't afraid
Even without hope all I have is one request,
For privilege to know you is all I need to feel blessed.
If you saw me as a sparrow my soul would feel at rest.
But then I ask for more please to heal the broken world,
Through a saviour for the oppressed and for the little boys and girls.
And as for myself I dare not ask for more to see,
But I would be so happy if you'd only remember me
(To remain within your memory).
When I'm long gone if my soul you called to mind
What kind of being would your memory find?
I hope you'd remember me as a friend
Always that way right down to the end
So Jehovah please restore the world you have made,
Forgive us our debts your son has repaid,
So then the universe will be in peace once again
And all will know you as Almighty God, Father, and Friend.
