I Looked Beyond
I looked beyond and saw that pleasant smile,
So powerful, yet I looked away in a while;
Those low sunk eyes and its lashes long and free,
They looked at me; they looked so deep to see;
There was so much more, so much more inside,
That made me shy; oh it made me run and hide;
To a place so close, so close to you it be,
That purest heart, the purest it was to me;
And I looked beyond and looked beyond to find,
That your smile had found its place to my heart and mind!
I looked beyond and saw those skillful hands,
So loving, yet I moved along the sands;
Of times ahead, of times so near and past,
Just to let it go, so far away too fast;
And then I knew, I knew it belonged to you,
And waited much, to know it was but true;
That you were here; you were here in all of me,
To make me mine and make me fine and free;
And I looked beyond and looked beyond to feel,
That the hands, they touched my heart so dear to heal!
I looked beyond and saw you coming near,
So near it was, that my soul sank deep in fear;
Those vibrant words and its manly sound so loud,
They swept their way to a space inside the cloud;
To clear its way, to bring my soul above,
So tall and strong, and fill its walls with love;
Those moments new, those moments clear and high,
They made me feel, they made me rise and fly;
And I looked beyond so much beyond to know,
That so close you came; I would never let you go!
