Lover of The Light

And in the middle of the night
I may watch you go
For His anger is but for a moment,

His favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may last for the night,But a shout of joy comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5

There'll be no value in the strength
Of walls that I have grown
There'll be no comfort in the shade
Of the shadows thrown
But I'd be yours if you'd be mine
.8  If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. 
 9  If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; 
 10  Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. 
.11  If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. 
 12  Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee. Psalm 40: 7-12

Stretch out my life
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.” Psalm 46:10

There'll be no value in the strength
Of walls that I have grown
There'll be no comfort in the shade
Of the shadows thrown
 7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? 

But I'd be yours if you'd be mine
"I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine," Song of Solomon 6:3

And pick the seams out
Take what you like
But close my ears and eyes
Watch me stumble over and over
The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. 2 Peter 3:9

I had done wrong

You build your tower

But call me home

Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known. Jeremiah 33.3

And I will build a throne
And wash my eyes out never again
Yet those who wait for the LORD Will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary. Isaiah 40:31

But love the one you hold
And I'll be your goal
To have and to hold
A lover of the light
Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, "I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life." John 8:12

With skin too tight
And eyes like marbles
You spin me high
So watch me as I glide
Before I tumble homeward, homeward

"Therefore I am now going to allure her; I will lead her into the desert and speak tenderly to her" 
Hosea 2:14


I know I tried
I was not stable
And flawed by pride
Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

I miss my sanguine eyes
So hold my hands up — breathe in and breathe out
He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;

So love the one you hold
And I'll be your goal
To have and to hold
A lover of the light

I watch this video and am wrecked that I am not so bold to leave behind all my self protection to simple chase the light. I don't have to see it or understand it I just have to feel its effects on my life and run towards it. I dig the imagery of the Stag living wild in the woods versus the man in the house. I didn't get the blindness afflicting him until I saw him pass on the cane. What the hell was he thinking walking out the door into the wild? It makes so much sense to take every method of protection available for everyday life much less a leisurely stroll through the woods. I am so jealous of the awe and wonder in his eyes discovering this new world I am in 24/7 but cant perceive or just have become jaded towards. To move in such a manner of freedom that cars cant took him instead of being so careful looking both ways before I cross the street. My heart held its breath as he was running headlong towards off the cliff. I know that feeling all to well. What I don't know yet is that ability to hear when to stop running just in time.
