River Rise

The emancipation of what is profound, I found in me, even before I felt what it was to believe
It was guidance, globally positioning this system without a GPMess, turning left of stress, and taking the first right,
Spiritually magnified, this took flight
Freeing me from the childhood tea parties the media so hastily invite
On the tubes, now digitally tuned, without an optical prescription to see
Let alone hear, the VOICE that was there forming words that read like hands
Offering life kickstands…
Aviating marked (own) seconds that make up minutes and 24 hour days, flying blind
With a pressure that knows no pressure to my heart, please be my eyes
Chorus from River Rise (India Arie )
River rise, carry me back home
I cannot remember the way
My smiles knew the rose that grew among the weeds in the field
Because my worries were kept behind by the thorns
And soon, my age became sunburned and felt my choices had been worn
I’d been torn
And distressed, without a dress to cover your spiritual creation
I need You to be my inspiration
Chorus from River Rise (India Arie)
River rise, carry me back home
I cannot remember the way
River rise, carry me back home
I surrender today
I surrender….Today
The flesh, this body, my imbalances, what belongs to you
Lord, I surrender…Today
Will you?

Wake up

Eyes blink, a halt to think, I think not because my thoughts are free; HE whispers without a melody and feathers sense my opening; I'm awake..
