Thank you for these sweet moments
When my heart comes alive
When all I see is you
In the beauty that surrounds

All I want is you
All I want to know is your presence
Your goodness through the heartache that seems to abound

For a little while I am here on earth
For little while I go through this process of rebirth

Losing all I held dear all I cherished
But I know you are near
In the mystery of the heartache and pain
You are remaking my life molding me
holding me no more shame


Touch me gently now
and lead my soul to
the sweet surrender of loving embrace
where I am broken only to see your face.

I am broken but still you come
Arrest my soul and heart once more
I am learning that your love is hard-core

Never changes never wanes
Never fades never melts away
In fact it only becomes more
as you show me what's in store

You are the sunlight in my soul
The light that guides me
leads me on and makes me whole

Use my life for your glory
I have to let go so you
can write my story

All I am for all you are
All I am for all you are
My heart cries
Wash away the bitterness the lies

Touch me gently now
Reach into my soul
Emptiness now whole

All I want is you
I open up to your love
Your love so true

Simplicity is what you seek
Gently as my heart leaks
As my hurt and trauma wash away
Listening to your words of love spoken in a new way.
