Wanting You right there
Closer than You are to me now
You are too far from me
My shell wanting to be wrapped
By Your physical presence
Your Spirit comforts
But imagining arms reaching
Is failure . . . I need You before me
I pray, "Give me arms to fall into"
I pray, "Give me ears that have lips"
I pray, "Give me a man with God's heart"
Here I stand in a field of searching hearts
Where only one exists for me
Who carries tears like mine
And before me, through all my denial
You place him, in all his difficulties
Crying out to You, as well, with the same prayer
Your Spirit comforts
But imagining arms reaching
Is failure . . . I need You before me
I pray, "Give me arms to fall into"
I pray, "Give me ears that have lips"
I pray, "Give me a man with God's heart"
Here I stand in a field of searching hearts
Where only one exists for me
Who carries tears like mine
And before me, through all my denial
You place him, in all his difficulties
Crying out to You, as well, with the same prayer
