singing my prayer

Tired of weaving dreams too loose for me to wearTired of watching clouds repeat their dance on air
Tired of getting tired of doing what’s required
Is life a mere routine in the greater scheme of things

Through with taking roads someone else designed
Through with chasing stars that soon forget to shine
Through with going through one more day - what’s new
Does my life still mean a thing in the greater scheme of things

I think I’ll follow the voice that calls within
Dance to the silent song it sings
I hope to find my place
So my life can fall in place
I know in time I’ll find my place
In the greater scheme of things

Each must go his way, but how can I decide
Which path I should take, who will be my guide
I need some kind of star to lead me somewhere far
To find a higher dream in the greater scheme of things

The road before me bends, I don’t know what I’ll find
Will I meet a friend or ghosts I left behind
Should I even be surprised that You’re with me in disguise
For it’s Your hand I have seen in the greater scheme of things

I think I’ll follow the voice that calls within
Dance to the silent song it sings
I hope to find my place
So my life can fall in place
I know in time I’ll find my place

For Yours is the voice in my deepest dreams
You are the heart, the very heart
Of the greater scheme of things

I think I’ll follow the voice that calls within
Dance to the silent song it sings
I hope to find my place
So my life can fall in place
I know in time I’ll find my place

Why don’t we follow the voice that calls within
Dance to the silent song it sings
One day we’ll find our place
For all things fall in place
For all things have a place
In the greater scheme of things

Well I hope that I don’t fall in love with you ‘Cause falling in love just makes me blue,
Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see,
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me
And I hope that I don’t fall in love with you.

Well the room is crowded, people everywhere
And I was wondering, should I offer you a chair?
Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it,
Before the evening’s gone away, I think that we could make it,
And I hope that I don’t fall in love with you.

Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you don’t understand,
Well I turn around to look at you, you light a cigarette,
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but we’ve never met,
And I hope that I don’t fall in love with you.

I can see that you are lonesome just like me,
And it being late, you’d like some some company,
Well I turn around to look at you, and you look back at me,
The guy you’re with has up and split, the chair next to you’s free,
And I hope that you don’t fall in love with me.

Now it’s closing time, the music’s fading out
Last call for drinks, I’ll have another stout.
Well I turn around to look at you, you’re nowhere to be found,
I search the place for your lost face, guess I’ll have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you.

For one moment, I had thought of the idea. Postpone it, move it, or just sleep on it…

So sad,  for I had never thought I’d ever come close to thinking this.I guess it’s part of my struggle of the life I live.

But I’m glad His Spirit overpowered mine and knocked me off back to my sensible self.Christmas is not about me. Christmas is about Him, and only Him.And that alone should humble me and make me not focus on Me.

As John Cage (Ally Mcbeal, 911 episode) put it:

 …we just want to go on, and sometimes to do that it helps to celebrate. Good will toward men, peace on earth, and joy… instead of going dark, let the light shine… It’s not a year to be skipping christmas.

Merry Christmas!

away from home

Sometimes I wonder if I’m ever gonna make it home again
It’s so far and out of sight
I really need someone to talk to
and nobody else
knows how to comfort me tonight

Snow is cold, rain is wet
Chills my soul right to the marrow
I won’t be happy till I see you alone again
Till I’m home again and feeling right

Snow is cold, rain is wet
Chills my soul right to the marrow
I won’t be happy till I see you alone again
Till I’m home again and feeling right
Till I’m home again and feeling right

I wanna be home again and feeling right
