HIGH
Dan Mukala
Tonight I watched the sky
And saw the stars around me
Fiery constellations
It's oh so dear that
You're not silent
While the world spins on beneath me
Never do I take the time
Just watch the world go flying by
Busybodies never stopping
And just when I resign
I think that I will never see
Your face again
Is when you take me high
And let me see Your holy countenance
And free me from the sadness
Of my yesterdays gone by
You take me high
And let me see the face of innocence
I don't know how, I don't know why
But You take me high
When I believe the lie
That You would never want me
I see myself through tainted eyes
And trapped inside the walls of my disguise
Looking for a new beginning
I find the heavy life oh so overbearing
I guess that's why You siad
That I should bear Your yoke upon me
And like so many times
You take me in Your arms again, and then
See the signs and take me high
Find a new beginning
Oh it's such a consolation
That judging from my suffering
It's only for a moment
