I will notice and/
connect with you IF you’ll just/
stop looking downward.
OR
I can notice and/
connect with you once you stop/
looking at the ground.
I will notice and/
connect with you IF you’ll just/
stop looking downward.
OR
I can notice and/
connect with you once you stop/
looking at the ground.
I’d sing “Fly Me to/
the Moon”, but only after/
we’ve met and she has.
If you keep looking/
backwards, you will run into /
light poles and stop signs.
Many folks want me/
to go dance tonight, but I’ve/
too much to do. Choice.
I will respect her/
enough to back away, while/
Facing her with hope.
OR
I will respect her/
enough to back away, yet/
still face her with hope.
In your darkest hour,/
fall on your knees, bow your head/
and seek His love’s light.
You will feel most lost/
right before you’re found, darkest/
just before His dawn.
He was not surprised /
that she made him cry, but these /
were not tears of joy.
The Prophet’s message/
is simple and direct. I’m/
glad I’m obeying.
