You wake me up as I look inward
time stands still as my heart keeps beating
tiny petals of hope unfurl their edges
as Sunshine washes in
I breathe as if for the first time
letting go and letting love win
my toes wriggle and I want to dance
I tip my head and give life a chance
A song wraps around my skin
as shame flows out and grace comes in
little pools of freeing drops
mark the path my journey has been
I dare move with power and might
remembering mercy brought me to here
where foot and heart and hands begin
humbly broken outside in
Woven under sapphire light
where eyes and mouth dare shine bright
we form a smile and let laughter out
You teach me God what joy is about
One step forward and onward still
faltering while praying 'Your will be done'
piercing thorns hold Our place
a crown for ashes- my sin erased
