God
It has been so long
I’ve forgotten how it feels
To touch the water beneath me
To hear the splash around me
The salt and sun beat down
To warms my broken soul
And keep my perspective whole
And every time I make that cast
I pray
That you will be there to guide me
As the bait placed to the hole
I sense
There is tension inside me
The tension builds
The reel sings
And together we can land it
And as I look into the glass
I see all through the grass
That life is beautiful
That life is all around me
And every time the line goes tight
I feel
Your presence is with me
I long, God I long
For the days I’ve left behind me
It’s been so long now
Since I stood upon this haul
I forgot just how it feels
To be beside you
It’s as though it wasn’t real
As I gaze into the sky
Now
I feel your smile upon me
Somehow
I knew you wouldn’t stay
And now
All around the sky turns gray
And it’s time to run back through the bay
And leave this place behind me
I run, God I run
With sea and grass beneath me
I know that you are there
And it’s as though you’re standing there beside me
To know you are there
And all is beautiful around me
I run, yes I run
And I glide so silently
To the edge
With the breeze and sea
With an angel’s wings
Beside me
