"Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me."
-David
"Still I'm so scared,
I'm holding my breath,
While You're up there just playing hard to get,
You who live in radiance,
Hear the prayers of those of us who live in skin,
We have a love that's not as patient as Yours was,
Still we do love now and then,
Did You ever know loneliness,
Did You ever know need,
Do You remember just how long a night can get?
When You were barely holding on,
And Your friends fall asleep,
And don't see the blood that's running in Your sweat,
Will those who mourn be left uncomforted,
While You're up there just playing hard to get?
All I really need to know,
Is if You who live in eternity,
Hear the prayers of those of us who live in time,
We can't see what's ahead,
And we can not get free of what we've left behind,
I'm reeling from these voices that keep screaming in my ears,
All the words of shame and doubt, blame and regret,
I can't see how You're leading me unless You've led me here,
Where I'm lost enough to let myself be led,
And so You've been here all along I guess,
It's just Your ways and You are just plain hard to get..."
