Poetic Lyrics

In the stillness, your quiet singing
falls like rain on thirsty ground.
Your voice unknown and yet familiar,
I drink it in, your gentle sound.
You pour your song into my being.
It reaches ev’ry part of me
to quench my thirst, my need, my longing.
Lord, fill my soul; come, sing to me,
Lord, fill my soul; come, sing to me.

Your song, a lamp within the darkness
beneath the heavy shroud of night.
Your song, a ladder rising upward
out of the vast and deep divide.
Your song, a boat upon the tempest,
an ark of rescue from the sea.
You are the breath within the music.
I sing to you; come, sing to me,
I sing to you; come, sing to me.

I sing to you across the distance;
come, sing me to the other side.
I sing to you in pain and sorrow;
come, sing me back to joy and life.
I sing to you, alone and drifting;
come, sing me safely into shore.
Lord, when you sing, all life is music.
I sing to you; come sing to me forevermore.
