Sense of Relief

oh how you make me happy,
oh,
Oh

You make me giggle and smile 
and reach for the sky 
you make me feel a sense peace 
of purity and excitement 

No reason in particular, 
you make me come out of my own skin 
into this place of beauty, love and protection

I always look to you when things are hard 
and when i screw up you catch my every tear in your hand
Holding my river in your arms all night long
as i confess my sins and change my ways

I feel a sense of neglect and hate with you not around
i dont feel myself and so excited
I feel so much pain and hurt and strife
I have realised that i love you too much 

To leave you behind and run ahead in the distance
See you crying everytime i look at you
knowing better but not caring, 
about what you have done for me and your grace 

The fog has cleared and i see your face 
i see you looking down and smiling at me
telling me how much you love me 
and care for me 
and want to hold me 
and comfort me.

I giggle all night long in your presence
i am delighted by your love 
and want all of you 

I love you now, and i always will 
Be there always, 
and when you carry me please God 
Dont drop me
