Thus Shall My Soul Boast

My soul shall boast in the Lord from whom all Love flows My tongue shall sing aloud for the goodness that shows I will take that long way home when it comes to spending time with Him There is this reason for the season and why I have this silly grin I have an inside tip that when I am losing I am really in the Wind I use to think I was a Romeo playing a part in a stage show Now I see the truth that from my youth I always had a rough row to hoe And those thorns of lonely-never-mind were my best teachers I could have ever known There was this gem that I had to find under the bleachers of another’s stage home This song I have tried to sing for so long to get the notes down before I go home With my only hope being a candle in the storm of infidelity can I handle this sanity I lay my head back down and I lift my hands and gently drift off into the melody of angelic bands Seeing all I ever have been superseded by the King that convinced me that I am all He ever needed There are different ways of knowing that there are promises that are more than ropes of sand I only know this one song that tells us only why not how fast, how far, how long… So in this melody I am pumping my fist to the bliss of a recovered first kiss Everything stops moving and all my windows become doors and all my thoughts scream more and more Learning in darkness this tune that I sing and spark this ever after no matter the flatter or disaster The last thing I saw anything would do to bring happiness of Pure Being into view and hold it as True!!
