Lost Soul

When my soul departs from me
i want it flying back to thee
like a nightingale in song
or a swallow swift and strong

to build a nest inside your arms
a sacred place of silent calm
to softly touch your silken hair
like all the years we used to share

like all the days we felt alive
the golden dreams we held inside

bring the spring into your heart
where lonely shadows fall apart
like crimson flowers in the sun
a field of life where love’s begun

let me enter in your soul
where broken dreams can turn to whole
in silent prayer i bow my head
before the one who raised the dead

the holy light the endless grace
that time and hate cannot erase
who forgives the world we’ve known
and leaves no heart to stand alone

bring the spring into your heart
where lonely shadows fall apart
like crimson flowers in the sun
a field of life where love’s begun

he waits for us with open arms
beyond all pain beyond all storms
no hatred lives within his soul
only love that makes us whole

and still he waits forevermore
with one red flower at the door

bring the spring into your heart
where lonely shadows fall apart
like crimson flowers in the sun
a field of life where love’s begun
