231216: Weightless

from Leap Songs, Part 2 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

Plenty times my back gets tired
Carrying all these memories
Raise this voice up with a prayer
Lift these heavy things from me

Won’t you make me weightless
Light as a feather
Won’t you gimme' faith
And a love that lasts forever

Gimme' just a taste of heaven
And I’ll be patient
Waiting for that day
Waiting for that day when
You make me weightless

Noone told me it would be easy
To walk the earth as flesh and bone
All they promised was it's worth it
When your maker calls you home

Clear and present pure and true
When you see me look right through
No more body not one ounce
It's all spirit where I'm bound
