I clung to miracles I have not seen |
|
From ancient autographs I can not read |
|
And though I've repented I'm still tempted I admit |
|
But it's not what bearing witness is |
|
Too full of fear and prophecy to see |
|
The revelation right in front of me |
|
So sick and tired of trying to make the pieces fit |
|
Because it's not what bearing witness is |
|
When the gap between |
|
What I hoped would be |
|
And what is makes me weep for my kids |
|
I take a cleansing breath and make a positive confession |
|
But is that what bearing witness is |
|
Though it may alienate your family |
|
And blur the lines of your identity |
|
Let go of what you know and honor what exists |
|
Son, that's what bearing witness is |
|
Daughter, that's what bearing witness is |
