Solace

(album: 11 Past The Hour - 2021)

Are you my solace in this brambled world
Is there a nest for a bird to rest in
Are you the warm sun I can raise my face t'ward
And worship without fear of being scorched

Are you the moon that a tide could turn to
When the pull is overwhelming
Without fear of drowning in the dark
Are you my solitude in the swarm
That surrounds me, the gaze that grounds me
When I'm swept away

Are you
Or is this too much to ask?
Are you
Or is this too much to wish for?

I'm not seeking a saviour I know my God
Nor rescue I'm capable
Don't want a home that's within me
Nor to complete me, I am whole

Are you the moon that a tide could turn to
When the pull is overwhelming
Without fear of drowning in the dark
Are you my solitude in the swarm
That surrounds me, the gaze that grounds me
When I'm swept away

Are you
Or is this too much to ask?
Are you
Or is this too much to wish for?

Are you the moon that a tide could turn to
When the pull is overwhelming
Without fear of drowning in the dark
