In this quiet I can feel the shadows whisper, asking, "When? When can we start screaming?"
I calmly wait beyond this hissing, with softly spoken promises..believing.
I come from light and when I shine, the darkness falls to it's knees and ground's made holy..
as His presence fills the place where I stand, or often kneel with hands that are folding.
A day goes by so quickly when Your love intertwines with heart and hands.
A year goes by so slowly...an hour of hopeless turmoil when devil's dance.
But YOU Oh Lord, You are making me new, and I have been wearing this size for so long.
These tattered clothes are tightly constricting, and I want to look pretty for You when I sing my song!
I haven't read the words yet that I will sing, but I hear the Melody in my heart,
and I know that when my voice comes forth it will run to where You are...
and return with the recompense of love that was lost and I will rejoice at the gain and won't ponder at the cost...
and who knows if I will ever stop singing?
