I Have Died

Standing in heaven
I sing for you
Waiting for your return

You fear my voice
Even as my heart
Bleeds for you to turn

From your coldness
To the fire
That within does burn

From your darkness
To the light
You can’t yet discern

I have died for you
A thousand times
And deeply I feel

Your darkest secrets
Your ravaged wounds
I know they are real

Real to me
You’re never alone
Let me reveal

The hidden love
The sovereign light
You unknowingly conceal

I know your pain
The words unspoken
That you never say

I see your strength
Your scars unhealed
You rarely display

So give them to me
Your suffering your wounds
And upon me, lay

Your darkness your fear
Your sins your emotion
I’ll take it away

Look at my eyes
My praying soul
My tearful face

I’ve already died
You don’t have to
Just accept my grace

I am willing
To make this right
Believe, and embrace

My spirit, love
My body, darling
Safe is our place

Standing in heaven
Where I love you
And you love me

And there I’ll pray
There you’ll sing
And we shall be free

I cry, knowing
That you don’t believe
So you don’t see

The beauty within
The love therein
In blessed be

So I wait
And I wait
And I wait

Only you
Can make
It abate

The pain
The hurt
The tears unsate

How dare you leave me
You are my beloved
My fallen soulmate

I just wanna say
Come home
I love you divine

I just wanna pray
That you’ll be ok
Not my will but thine

I just wanna hope
You’ll return
And you’ll be mine

I just wanna trust
That you’ll see
Your beauty fine

Because I love you
I have died for you
Just believe…
