Don

Like closing doors, dial tones
Like a wasted Polaroid
Like broken strings, and crumbled stones
Like a vacuum in a void

Then it becomes

Like shooting stars, and new days
Like silver lining parades
Like renewed wings, music plays
Like the sun is here to stay

The star in the day
Reminds me of the stars in the night
The symbol of saving grace
Embraced by the unfailing light

I’m renewed by what you said
To hear you is my choice
Every single time I read
I heard The Truth in your voice

Though it fades, it’s never gone
My weakness brings me back
To your Love that lives on
Even when it’s Faith I lack

I’ll always remember you
For everything you put me through

The highs and the lows
Everything I’ve ever wrote
In all my poetry and prose
In your Spirit that knows
In every melody by your Love, composed
All these which help me grow

Thank you for all you’ve done
Embracing me when I try to run
For a life brighter than the Sun
You are the Son, you are the Son
Oh Loving, Merciful, Righteous
Oh Glorious One

I had a dream of her again
But I didn’t see her face
I don’t understand
She didn’t say her name

It was just us
We were alone
It was enough
To feel at home

Who is she?
What does she want from me?
Why is she in my dreams?
I’m asking incompletely

I hope I dream of her again
And not see her face again
Not understand again
Why she doesn’t say her name

These situations so hard to bear
I don’t know how and I don’t know where
But I feel it in the air
Every breath is getting heavier

Dear Lord,
I’m lost in my own mind
I’m seeking you, help me find
Remind me that you’re here
You’re here with me

Thinking used to be so easy
Until my heart began speaking
I’m yearning for something deep inside of me
Though I don’t know what it is

I surrender all these tears
Now it’s your voice I hear
You’re here with me
You’re here with me

You’re here with me
You’re here with me

Dear Lord,
I’m lost in my own mind
I’m seeking you, help me find
Remind me that you’re here
You’re here with me

Jesus…

Words are only words until animated by deeds
The air is only air until I breathe
Love is empty if nothing is what I do
It’s everything the moment I choose to move

Love is the movement
Love is the revolution

If I’m not Loving, I’m not moving
If I’m not breathing, I’m not living
Faith becomes breath
And the air becomes Truth

Only when I realize I’m breathing you
Because I need you to live

Your Spirit moves
My heart
My soul
My mind
My hands
My feet
Everything

You are the movement
You are the revolution

You are all of this and more
Everything I need
To move for you, Lord
Is to breathe

Is to be

A Revolution
