Manna from Heaven

Manna from heaven

Manner of god

Manifold witness

Womb of my heart

Feather all my dreaming 

Give me your deep sweet beauty divine

Let me nest within your goodness

Soothe this tired weeping heart of mine.

Verse:

During the daytime

I’m mostly tangling string

Responsibilites mine

In each and everything

No wonder when I lay down

I coil up like a spring

Lord I so need to unwind from

The knotted way I seem to think .

Chorus

Blue birds they may shine

And sing from up above

But I seem to have no time

For their Angelic love

Worries of mine keep moving

I cant seem to keep up

Tied up I’m tired and drowning

In a world that never seems to stop.

Chorus

Beyond my understanding

When I think on the thoughts around Godliness

Confusion can block me I confess

Unseeing belief is good for me I guess

But I don’t feel fine when my life’s a mess

 

God beyond my understanding

Personal, abstract or no name at all

Be my sweet DNA, ground my being

Love me completely, enlighten my way

Discretely please guide me so that I may

 

Fall, fall into Your opening arms

Fall, fall right down upon these knees

Call, call out now for Your loving balm

Restore me, renew me so I receive

 

You are the Name above all names

You are the word beyond my lone voice

You hear what I need before I  say

You chose to bequeath me my own choice

 

For You are the luminous great I AM

You shine Your light upon everything

Even when we choose to walk alone

You patiently wait to guide us back home

Yes you are patiently waiting to guide us home.

Childlike Children

Remembering past times

When our children had childlike

Free flowing bold confidence

Unknowing pure innocence

When no fear could constrain them

From sharing unearned gifts

Unseeing the suffering

Where the self critic lives.

 

Let us begin to believe how

We were once like this child

Let us reconnect right now

With the ease and the power

Let our life courses choose love

Let our voices ring true

Drain doubt from our sweet Hearts

Flooded completely in You.
