Pushed aside and cast to dirt
My soul seems so lost and fearful of this hurt
Come near Once Again
O, Lover of my soul
Show me that I have been saved from the fire and pulled from the ash
To be made beautiful . . .
Once Again
Lift my spirit to soar
Let my life take flight
On the back of a horse I have never been closer
To the Maker of the night . . .
Something inside You've made
I long to be free with the passion you created inside of me
Confined to walls and the pavement creeps
Where are the sunlit fields and the time where it was just You and me? . . .
Come to my rescue O Lover of my soul
Save me from the war within
That I may ride on this earth
Just to be near You . . .
Once Again
I wrote this poem in the middle of the night a few weeks after losing my dad. We were so close and we had a special bond and love of horses. This was from my soul telling Jesus how I longed to ride with my dad and see them both soon. Once Again I wanted to be wrapped in the arms of love and to be close to my Creator. There's so much I could continue to say, but I only hope that it blesses your soul as it did mine to pour it out upon the pages of my book.
