Thrill Me Tonight – a song

Thrill Me Tonight – a song

[verse 1]
Walked into the crowded bar
An end to the unending week
I saw your windblown hair
As you walked in from the street

I wondered what might happen
If I asked to know your name
Hoped in that brave moment
We’d never be the same

I’ve always been a dreamer
But the dream was new tonight
I wondered if you’d save my day
And fill my lonesome night

[chorus]
Thrill me tonight
Fill me tonight
Save me from today
Fill my lonely night

Follow me tonight
I’ll show you where you live
Tell to me your name
And thrill me tonight

[verse 2]
The blur of midday ended
As day turned into night
Into your twilight eyes
Into the promised light

I crossed the crowded place
And found your starlit face
Asked you for your name
Into my night you came

I’ve always been a dreamer
But the dream came true tonight
As day turned into evening
Adorned in your beautiful sight

[chorus]

[verse 3]
We drove into the night
Top down, tunes filled the dark
You touched my tired leg
The night lept through my chest

And then began the rest
Of night’s remembered place
Gazing into starlight
Gazing at your face

The tickled insecurities
Faded into dark
As night fell into silence
And all the world fell stark

[chorus]

[verse 4]
Arriving into silence
We fell to life renewed
And life was newly mobile
Moving into grace

The fire turned to light
As colors bloomed to life
I touched your blooming rose
And kissed your waiting face

Perfection found in wonder
Exploring newfound fates
Alive in newfound wonders
Emptying our plates

[chorus]

[verse 5]
Enlivened imprecisions
As day turned into night
We flew to unknown places
Releasing all old plights

And fire turned to night
And water flowed in peace
Releasing you in silence
Screaming in release

Exploding into glory
I touched your waiting place
Started with a moment
I braved to ask your name

[chorus]

This Morning

No Comments

I woke this morning
And felt a gentle breeze
I woke this morning
And heard a bird’s song

You woke this morning
I breathed you a breeze
You woke this morning
I sang a gentle song

I woke this morning
Heard your unspeakable name
I woke this morning
And would never be the same

You woke this morning
I smiled as I called your name
You woke this morning
We will never be the same

I woke this morning
And felt a gentle breeze
I woke this morning
And felt the Spirit’s pull

You woke this morning, child
And caused me to smile in delight
You woke this new morning
What a glorious and wondrous sight

Touched by Your hand
Bathed in your light
Filled in your presence
Alive in your love

God of all mercies
Hear your peoples’ prayers
All you have to give us
Release unto this day

As we lift our hearts to you
We shout your Son’s good name
Jesus, we adore you
Rise in us right now

Blink of an Eye

No Comments

The blink of her right eye
Convinced me of her words
I said I’d follow her anywhere
And I did

Into the dark closet
The sun no longer shone
The foul odors nagging
Coming from places unknown

Remembering the sunlight
As he pushed me on the swing
Warm rays, warmer love
And the songs I heard him sing

Wondering yet again
Why would she torment me so?
These question that gnaw at my mind
Why doesn’t daddy seem to know?

Deeper into the darkness
Only place left to hide
Colors around the next bend
Where evils no longer reside

I think I hear her coming
I need to hurry away
Lost in darker caverns
Refuse to longer stay

Haunted by the blink of an eye
Prisoner to the oldest shame
Welcome to the depths of hell
She’s calling again my name

Call of Fire

Good versus evil
Dark, warm and bright
Choices in peril
Entering the light

Run with the devil
Scream in the night
Taste the old passion
Writhe in delight

Serpent awakened
Touching the soul
Igniting the senses
Fiery red coal

Good versus evil
One and the same
All in God’s mercy
Call out His name
