sing the Hebrews
under pharaoh.
Save us.
You do it.
Come my
white knight
in shining armor,
Save me.
You do it.
Come back Messiah.
Come deliver us,
from the darkness
we’ve created.
Carry us to the light.
You do it.
Suddenly I hear,
in the call,
“everybody wants
a ride to heaven,
but nobody wants
to make the climb” (1)
You carry me.
You do it.
Suddenly I hear
the recognition,
in the call,
of me being
the victim.
You save me.
You do it.
How can I
ask for that?
I believe
“It is no longer
the time of
great spiritual leaders.
It is now the time
of great spirits,
instead.” (2)
I am the only one
who can deliver me
from my fears,
my self imposed
limitations.
It is time to break the bonds
of my inner wars,
my fears of ridicule.
It is time to claim
the wings of my light
and fly in lightness
and humor,
into the accountability
of being fully
responsible for my life.
I carry me.
I do it.
