Far cry!
Lo the things that are never to be
Peek in to see that which mortals long to see
Deeper than the billowing seas
As lofty as royal decrees
The aspirations of you and me
Never touched outside of dreams
Far cry!
Lo the things that are never to be
Peek in to see that which mortals long to see
Deeper than the billowing seas
As lofty as royal decrees
The aspirations of you and me
Never touched outside of dreams
O Lord,
The sun shined in a blue sky
And in green pastures did I lie
As I awaited this dream that was my heart’s cry
O Lord,
You knew my longing for the sunshine
You heard as I begged it to be mine
That I made my heart to it bind
To darken it would be unkind
O Lord,
The sun set
The sky went black
The pasture became the valley of death
O Lord,
You lead me through this place of despair
For the sun is no longer there
The path we tread must lead somewhere
Though sometimes I just do not care
For it seems an unending nightmare
O Lord,
Forgive me when I speak in rage
For sometimes this feels like a cage
And this feeling I just want to assuage
O Lord,
Thank you for hearing me
Thank you for being near me
Thank you for walking with me
In this darkness surrounding me
O Lord,
Stamp out the path till it be clear
May our wanderings here be a highway
To that shore where You will cause
The sun to rise
