|
Here I am without a message |
|
Here I stand with empty hands |
|
Just a spirit tired of wandering like a stranger in this land |
|
Walking wide-eyed through this world |
|
Is the only way I've known |
|
Wrapped in hope and good intention and |
|
Bare to the bone |
|
There is nothing I won't show you |
|
There is nothing I can hide |
|
I've risked it all and dreamt it all |
|
And seldom questioned why |
|
You took me in when I was hungry |
|
When my spirit ached and groaned |
|
Laid wide open and defenseless |
|
And bare to the bone |
|
When I rise, I rise in glory |
|
If I do, I do by grace |
|
Time will wash away our footprints |
|
And we'll leave without a trace |
|
Between here and now and forever |
|
Is such precious little time |
|
What we do in love and kindness |
|
Is all we ever leave behind |
|
When my eyes are slowly fading |
|
When the light is softly waning |
|
When the evening sun is setting |
|
And the world is barely breathing |
|
Then your voice will call me |
|
And your hands will lead me home |
|
Like a newborn awed and naked |
|
And bare to the bone |
|
When I rise, I rise in glory |
|
If I do, I do by grace |
|
Time will wash away our footprints |
|
And we'll leave without a trace |
|
Between here and now and forever |
|
Is such precious little time |
|
What we do in love and kindness |
|
Is all we ever leave behind |
|
Here I am without a message |
|
Here I stand with empty hands |
|
Just a spirit tired of wandering |
|
Like a stranger in this land |
|
Walking wide-eyed through this world |
|
Is the only way I've known |
|
Wrapped in hope and good intention and |
|
Bare to the bone |
