Bare To The Bone |
Here I am without a message |
Here I stand with empty hands |
Just a spirit tired of wandering |
Like a stranger in this land |
Walking wide eyed through this world |
Is the only way I’ve known |
Wrapped in hope and good intentions |
Bare to the bone |
There is nothing I won’t show you |
Nothing I can hide |
Risked it all and dreamt it all |
And seldom questioned why |
You took me in when I was hungry |
When my spirit ached and groaned |
Laid wide open and defenseless |
And bear to the bone |
So, when I rise, I rise in glory |
If I do, I do by grace |
Time will wash away these footprints |
And we’ll leave without a trace |
Between here and now and forever |
Is such precious little time? |
What we do in love and kindness |
Is all that we leave behind |
When my lights are slowly fading |
And my eyes is softly waning |
And the evening sun is setting |
And the world is barely breathing |
Then your voice will call me |
And your hands can lead me home |
Like a newborn awed and naked |
And bare to the bone |
So, when I rise, I rise in glory |
If I do, I do by grace |
Time will wash away these footprints |
And we’ll leave without a trace |
Between here and now and forever |
Is such precious little time |
What we do in love and kindness |
Is all we ever leave behind |
Here I am without a message |
Here I stand with empty hands |
Just a spirit tired of wandering |
Like a stranger in this land |
Walking wide eyed through this world |
Is the only way I’ve known |
Wrapped in hope and good intentions |
Bare to the bone |
Wrapped in hope and good intentions |
Bare to the bone |
