Into the Light (Pantoum)
With tears upon my aging cheek
My trust in the world so leery
Answers I do search and seek
But I feel so weak and weary
My trust in the world so leery
For so much horror I have seen
But I feel so weak and weary
My spirit lost in the in-between
For so much horror I have seen
Sadness unfurled upon the land
My spirit lost in the in-between
Goodness only small pebbles of sand
Sadness unfurled upon the land
I call upon the Lord above
Goodness only small pebbles of sand
To touch these grains with his pure love
I call upon the Lord above
My spirit reaching from deep inside
To touch these grains with his pure love
Across the heavens, the great divide
My spirit reaching from deep inside
To touch and feel his wondrous light
Across the heavens, the great divide
Guiding me through this world of night
To touch and feel his wondrous light
My spirit grows steadily and soars
Guiding me through this world of night
My soul replenished and now restored
My spirit grows steadily and soars
Answers I do search and seek
My soul replenished and now restored
With tears upon my aging cheek
