flight of the butterfly, rising free
mysteries of salvation held in a dream
awakened in glory, finding new light
glorious words through the holy spirit
opened the eyes, gave vision and sight
Smoke drifts lazily from the embers
As we gaze at the starlit night sky
Full moon's rays light your form
Breath stolen once again....
I sit here alone in my misery
Trying so hard to find peace
The answers, they all elude me
I don't understand what I've done.
I try to make sense of my life today
Wonder what things I've done wrong
Everyone in my life has abandoned me
I must have done something to deserve this place
Did I not express kindness and love?
Did I not utter words that were true?
Have I not given all that I am?
What more was I supposed to do?
I've been honest and truthful and faithful
Patient, kind, loving and true
I gave all that I am to another
Was there something that I didn't do?
I pray to my God for the answers
I hope that my life will go on
But I find that I just can't keep living
In the chaos and misery I own.
God, as always, is faithful
He answers my desperate plea
Sends another with understanding to help me
Delivers me back to where I'm free.
