Pierced
10-6-2011
Everyday you rise, greeting the world with your rays
Streaming healing light, dispelling the darkness to day
I get your message clear and bright, in your unconditional ways
To share of my heart and mind, my head and my hands are raised
I know inside, it is You, not I, that shines
I know inside, it is You, not I, that shines
But the pattern’s deep and wide, I’m lost to the world that it hides
And I know that it’s a crime, only seeking the truth part-time.
Yet I feel this urge inside, a memory from outside my life
I struggle with the climb, of keeping the summit in sight
I know it’s alright, ‘coz You are on my mind
I know it’s alright, ‘coz You are on my mind
It’s calling like a bird of prey in flight,
launched by the urge to unite
Piercing me like clear insight, penetrating the places I hide
So I find the strength to rise, the beauty, the courage to fly
To purify my higher side, to cut through the clutter and grime
I know it’s time, ‘coz You are by my side
I know its time, ‘coz You are by my side
And so everyday I rise, meeting the world with my eyes
Breathing you deep inside, releasing the chords that bind
I’m gonna travel far and wide, looking for the nothing to find
For the treasure of humankind, only sparkles when held in the light
I know it’s mine, this universal light
I know it’s mine, this universal light
