we come to your feast...
everyday as the sun goes up to reign havoc to the desert
everyday as the wind runs through the hills
as the mountain guards the opening of your door
as the tall trees around surround your fort
they never sway, they never turn black even struck
by the bolt of a fast flashing lightning
with the strength of the rope that binds us
the hurricane will never win
the house will stood there looking upon us
ready to take us and cuddle our tired spirits
anytime we break into pieces or fall on our knees
we come, we pray and we discovered
that the words are true to their meanings
they never wither and never be blown away
by the force of the tongues that are numerous out there
with the sharp of a blade, there are no blood shed
your protection envelopes the moon and the planets
the land after the storm is flat, it is defeated
but the soil washed away by the raging water
will come nutrients will come fruits will come tender shoots
i can now smell the roses
yes, there is God
that guides the turning of the universe
yes, there is God
that we go to in time of darkness
yes, there is God
that hides the mysteries
that doles out miracles
from heaven
there is God that we worship
every day and every Sunday
there is God that made you stand here today
there is God that lights your way forever
if we ask, if we cared, if we trust
if we have the faith in our hearts
yes, there is God
that sees us in any angle
in our nakedness anytime
anywhere, any place and for always...
