This is a prayer that just kind of poured out one evening.
I am broken and need your light
when there's not an end in sight
I don't know if I can believe
My heart's feelings often deceive
I need your love, as good as gold
I need an honest hand to hold
I need a path that leads to home
I need a greener space to roam
I need, I need and I beseech
you, God -- I know, a human leech
I take from you
and I is I
I need the blue wide-open sky
and fresh clean air
and palms of beach
and something that's beyond my reach
Without you there is nothing new
and with you there's a cloud or two
but nothing we can't see beyond
If only you'd expand this pond
that lies inside a timid heart
and fix the things that broke apart
and make a sea to sail, instead
and lay to rest my weary head.
