I’ve grown close to the Way
Long before my thoughts moved
Somewhere far away
Groans of fall, winter, springtime
Forward and back
You have hemmed me in times of pain
Your Way’s flowing to me
Through me
Your call, gentler than May time
Longing for eyes that are
Fixed solely on your face
Soft coos, flutter of wings
The flicker of white midst the trees
Makes the child in me sing
It’s just the special way you speak inside
The way you whisper as my heart inclines
You nestle secret love notes in my mind
The Truth, the Way, the Life
I’ve flown the wrong way at times
And it feels like
A tried destination far from home
The knowing gaze of Your face
Now that feels right at home
Yes, you’re leading the Way
Long before my thoughts moved
Somewhere far away
Groans of fall, winter, springtime
Forward and back
You have hemmed me in times of pain
Your Way’s flowing to me
Through me
Your call, gentler than May time
Longing for eyes that are
Fixed solely on your face
Soft coos, flutter of wings
The flicker of white midst the trees
Makes the child in me sing
It’s just the special way you speak inside
The way you whisper as my heart inclines
You nestle secret love notes in my mind
The Truth, the Way, the Life
I’ve flown the wrong way at times
And it feels like
A tried destination far from home
The knowing gaze of Your face
Now that feels right at home
Yes, you’re leading the Way
