ecclesiastes 3:11


Come, little darling                 Come, precious child,

come precious child.              come my weary daugther.      

see the water?                        see the sky?

it is quiet here                         I exist up here;

it is calm and deep and       it is bright and good and

reflective, like you.                sunny, like you.

can't you see you               can't you see you

belong here?                            belong here?

yes, that's it                            no, please don't

come, you weary child          give in, child;

come to the water              be strong. 

see the pale grey sky,            see the darkness,

the shades of blue.                 the sin in their ways.

can't you see                           can't you see

you don't belong up there,    you belong up here,

with them on the shore?        holding my hand?

they laugh too loudly,               I'll soothe you,

they hurt your eyes.                heal you of pain.

give me your hands,                come to me,

your arms, your                         my beautiful creation,

pale and skinny body.               weary daughter.

let me hug you,                          let me love you,

if they won't.                               for they can't.

yes, come to me                          come to me,

and be calm                                  and be still.

relax, and just breathe.               let go of sin.

just think, oh                                just think, oh

fragile outcast;                            this is where you belong,

you are here at last,                   here with me, for

deep under with me now.          I made you.

You are mine now.                       I love you.
