lyrics

Energy Prayer (© d. first 2020)

Energy
You walked alive before us
Ever here

And energy
You build the world around us
Every day
All night

Energy
You flow along unceasing
Unafraid

Energy
You swirl around
A brilliant everyday storm

I can feel you growing stronger
Laughing crying healthy dying
I can see you through invention
Physical witnessing offered
Oh my loudness
Oh my goodness
Calling
Calling
Calling out to

Energy
We need you in our darkness
Every day

And energy
You must adjust the madness
Every way
You can

Energy
Can we perceive your purpose
Through our haze

Energy
Don’t hold it over our heads
One day more

I can feel your penetration
Living loving pushing shoving
Almost touching through the membrane
Mystical package of furies
On my honor
On my deathbed
Well
Well
Well
Well
Well
Well
Welcome

Energy it’s me

I am seeking thunder’s rainbow
Breathing in and out and over
Wading through the whirl astounds me
Ethical questioning vexes
All our trials
All our children
Blur

Blur
Blur
All our spirals
All our prisons
Blur

Blur
Blur
Blur
Blur
All our whims and calculations
Blur

Blurting

Energy
I’ve walked along beside you
From the start

Energy
I must admit I need you
Never part

Energy
I live a life
Until you break my heart
