Paroles de Myrrh

I had a dream about the sea I was a lighthouse, You were calling to me I was living in retreat Hiding from Poseidon’s fury I saw the last sands of time When the unprepared will beg the wise I reached for my lamp to light To look for oil but found the fool in mine But wisdom will be justified by What she bears over her life So break my leg, my name decide That I’ll emerge unrecognized The water came in slow Great the fall, my tower buckled I had let my love grow cold As accusations plundered all my hope I woke rattled to my core Of my life deluded meant for more If it’s You or the shore I am Yours, I am Yours But wisdom will be justified by What she bears over her life So break my leg, my name decide That I’ll emerge unrecognized Mine will be a vessel shattered Every drop poured o’er my Lover So bring the floods, bring the fire I am Yours, hell or high water I will ne’er again retreat From the Gethsemane in which You’re leading me To Golgotha, unto death For You will triumph o’er all defeat In spite of sorrow, loss, or pain Our course be onward still We sow on Burma’s barren plain We reap on Zion’s hill I had a dream about the sea I was a lighthouse, You were calling to me But wisdom will be justified by What she bears over her life So break my leg, my name decide That I’ll emerge unrecognized Mine will be a vessel shattered Every drop poured o’er my Lover So bring the floods, bring the fire I am Yours, hell or high water You have a dream for You and me You are the lighthouse, Your light beckons to me
