Beneath the first light
I raise my heart in supplication
lift me up Oh Lord
off my trembling knees
life’s burdens hold me down
*
Beneath the first light
my eyes to meet the sun
reflections on the hill
beckoned to dance
nature all around
*
Beneath the first light
I raise my voice to sing
notes like butterflies
I am reminded I am free
no shackles hold me down
“If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things… And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world , and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.”
John 3:12 & 19
