We seek ourselves on higher ground
sometimes weakness rules the night
other times it's pure delight
In darkness, the light can be found
I need to understand the compromise
Not be afraid to become surprised
Our love will always be there
All we need is provided for those who ask
We only need to accept our lord and have no fear
Let his love be our guiding light through all our tasks
Treat each other as we would like to be treated
If we can truly do this, we can never feel defeated
Trust in ourselves first, then in those who have touched our life
Don't be consumed by the tears of despair
open our hearts and be blessed with hands of repair
Restoration be our salvation, our redeeming quality
We've been given this precious gift of life beyond death
With so little asked for in return other than belief
And doing for others what goodness has bestowed upon us
Seems like a simple choice that can bring so much relief
If we're open to change we can learn how to trust
As I await the new life ahead of me
I keep the faith born from his tree
