Lord, pull my heart and wrap me around
the whole of Your love, immersed, endowed.
Now drown the hallows of all life’s waves
into the depth of Your deep sweetened gaze.
I cast all towards Your certain way
and leave behind what binds every day.
I’ll carry not my burdens here nor there,
for in Your care, I am freed as Love’s heir.
I bid my heart to rise into love
and walk as one born boldly new.
Holding, keeping, living, reaping
All lived from a glimpse of none but You.
This, in the awe of my heart in love’s tow.
O Lord you have set my soul aglow.
It births, it gives all life a new start.
I reach, embrace, and shall never let go.
