Through the open door
As far as my eyes can see
A radiant light awaits me
It draws me near, it draws me near and says
Be free, be free
Through the open door
As far as my eyes can see
A difficult path ahead of me
I draw near, I draw near and see
Fully, fully
Through the open door
As far as my eyes can see
A beautiful grace surrounds me
And I dive in, and I dive in and it is
So deep, so deep

Of Ravens And Lilies

Raven, you float and you soar away from your troubles
I wish I could, too
Raven, you fly with conviction, you’ll make it through today
I wish I could, too
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul
Don't you stray
Lily, you sit there so pretty, you exist without a worry
I wish I could, too
Lily, your splendour displayed sparks marvel everyday
I wish I could, too
Oh, my soul
I have truth to say
To my soul, I will say
Your life is fuller than you'll know
So much left for you to still see
Oh little one, know you are loved
By One who knows your needs
Your life is fuller than you'll know
So much left for you to still see
Oh little one, know you are loved
Know that you are loved
If the ravens and lilies live with no fear of what's to come
Maybe I could, too

Softness

My bones, they are soft and tender
Growing weary under
The weight of everything
My bones, they are at their limit
They bend under
The weight of everything
Under everything
Let me heal in the ways I need
So my soft bones, one day, may yet again breathe
When will my bones stop bending
Under the weight of everything?
Will my bones ever get a break
From the weight of everything?
Everything
Ooh
Ooh
Will the wreckage reveal softness?
Will there be any remnants of softness?
Ooh
Ooh
Will the wreckage reveal softness?
Will there be any remnants of softness?
I want there to be (Softness)
I want there to be (Softness)
I want there to be (Softness)
I want there to be, still, softness
Ooh
May there be healing in ways unseen
So our soft bones, one day, may yet again breathe

What The Sunflowers See

What do you see when you raise your head?
Is it the sky's soft hues mixed from red and blue?
Maybe it's the glimpse of a moment of stillness
Perhaps we'll never know
What brings your gentle smile
What do you see when you look to the sky?
Is it the clouds painted white on canvas, light blue?
Maybe it's the glimpse of a moment of innocence
Perhaps we'll never know
What brings your gentle smile
What do you see when you lower your gaze?
Is it the sight of the heavens? Displays of perfection?
Maybe it's the glimpse of a moment of reverence
Ahh
Ahh
Ahh
Ahh
Ahh
Ahh
Ahh
Ahh

Ooh
Ooh
To know my heart the way you do
I know my heart was made by you
Connected to the truth I need to know
Here I know I'm loved
Ooh
To know my heart the way you do
I know my heart was made by you
Connected to the truth I need to know
Here I know I'm loved
Ooh
