Myrrh

MYRHH (BALLADS OF THE SONG OF SOLOMON)

I had a dream about the sea I was a lighthouse
You were calling to me
I was living in retreat
Hiding from Poseidon's fury
I saw the last sands of time
When the unprepared will beg the wise
I reached for my lamp to light
To look for oil but found the fool in mine

But wisdom will be justified by
What she bears over her life
So break my leg, my name decide
That I'll emerge unrecognized

The water came in slow Great the fall, my tower buckled
I had let my love grow cold
As accusations plundered all my hope
I woke rattled to my core
Of my life deluded meant for more If it's
You or the shore I am Yours, I am Yours

But wisdom will be justified by
What she bears over her life
So break my leg my name decide
That I'll emerge unrecognized Mine will be a vessel shattered
Every drop poured over my lover
So bring the floods and bring the fire
I am yours hell or high water

I will ne'er again retreat From the
Gethsemane in which You're leading
To Golgotha and the death of me
For You will triumph o'er defeat

In spite of sorrow, loss, or pain
Our course be onward still
We sow on Burma's barren plain
We reap on Zion's hill

I had a dream about the sea
I was the lighthouse, You were calling to me

You have a dream for You and me
You are the lighthouse
Your light beckons to me
