Hourglass

on the verge of the depression
in the depths of the despair
between the waves that shape the maelstrom
at the center of it all
i found land
where the water meets the sand
at last i seem to understand
on the edge of every breakdown
in the middle of the night
between the wonder and the heartache
at the end of every song
present joy
in spite of all the noise
it's impossible to lose my voice
nothing is better than letting it in
swallow the mystery and find what it brings
from the deep end to birds flying high in the sky
the heart is still inside
on the contrary there's sequence
in the scheme of understanding
between the infinite and dawning
at the start of time itself
there's a love
and a gift for no applause
entering where we have lost
when i thought i hit the bottom
when i thought i had it all
i ran right into conclusion
got a planet to explore
hourglass
shattered in the past
who would wanna live this fast?

Blindfolded

noonday demon
sings me to sleep and
fevered me in love
i hear the dove
ringing in my ear
silencing my fears
clothing me in white
mirror the Son's light
my eyes are open
nothing to see here
words through the ceiling
summoning the lonely
thoughts on living
the sirens and the killing
outside vaguely i hear them
calling me by name
at times i don't know where i'm going
staring blankly ahead or right into the sun
i'm blindfolded by my own ideas
still there's a million different questions
that i should've asked
but i lost them when You touched me with
the sense in my head
there's a place beyond my reason
where i'm feeling instead
where i'm in awe
speechlessly welcoming love
to tear me apart
to rapture my heart
and put the pieces back together
till i've got nothing
to be sad about
or any other doubt
that kept my feet on the floor
how could i have shut my door?

The Unforeseen Dream

off in the distance
there's another storm
i can't bear
i feel it coming
though it might come from
anywhere
no
every day the cuts are getting deeper
still you can't stop it
plucking feathers from your beautiful skin
blue like the sapphire
i feel the contrary to what you think
to every restless mind that i have known
i never thought i could be so alone
looking back i should never have
let it live for that long
next to the beat inside my heart
as if a kid of that age would know
the difference between letting go
and losing what he loves
surely you would not be naive
no not like i was
you'd carry on without it till the end
still i pray to you one more time
to reconcile
i'll shut my eyes for all there is to see
oh my God
at last i understand that
you abolish every fear
after all these years
i've found out there is
truly no end to God's love

Boundaryless

from the moment i saw
there had been colours
painted under a sky
intensified by light
from the moment i'd walk
miles across the land
if i were to get lost
i knew i'd be guided by your hand
his lies were chasing me
oh what a snake it is
i would run to you
'cause your voice is true
telling me softly
i love you
i chose you
i can hold you here tonight
after a while
you'd be the culprit
since i knew i'd become
someone unfamiliarized
oh God i still sorrow
the way that i turned my back at you
how could i ever?
as you watched my fortress fall
i'm a disgrace
but you saw through my every flaw
how could i ever?
i must have lost myself in your love
the door is wide open
prepared you a room inside my house
contaminated
i can finally slow down
satisfied
with all i could find
within the boundaryless
love of my life

Surrounded By The Song

lover of my soul
you have shown your colours
lightening up the dark in my saddest hours
please just come again
i wash my hands in uncertainty
my sight is getting worse
i'm hardly listening
but every day my heart grows lighter
i am thankfully alive
sooner than later
i'll be sure
but first things first
i wanna be with you and
tell my demons goodbye now
i'm swimming in a lake of stillness with her
you show me a way
you are never sleeping
everywhere i go
every breath i breathe in
always on my side you guide me
i have never felt so free
illuminating overcast
with one touch of your hand
they're all made new again
and i know i can trust your spirit
he can do the same for me
not even the wolves could touch their prey
when you show up you give us all you've got yeah
you are our only savior Jesus
shepherd of my soul
you have shown mercy to us all
your love is surreal i don't know what to feel when
you conquer my heart and my whole being's
struck with love
surrounded by your song
