My Spirit Cries to Know

My spirit cries to know
The lasting love that the Creator bestows
To all that open their hearts to see
Just how connected we all are to be
Throughout the pains of life
Struggling with all the strife
Left to die under that tree
With only one heartfelt plea
Praying the Light will unite my friends
Fulfilling their desires to the end
Showing me how to love them all
Knowing they're there, to pick me up when I fall
Watching my back as I watch theirs
Inspiring me to stand up and dare
To open my heart and bring joy to the Creator
Despite all these snapping gators
Fearing only for the Lord
Who has shown me how to wield this sword
The sword of truth, that from my eyes is concealed
For the fear for Him I hold is my shield
