Here I Lay
when I look up at the blue sky
and feel the sun kissing my face
no matter how terrible I feel
I'm happy to see the darkness erase
the green grass beneath my feet
cool and soft to the touch
the smell puts my mind at ease
I only ask for this much
I feel like I have a father
when I'm out all alone
when my own isn't there to comfort me
He's there to make me happy once more
when I lay on that grass
and look into the clear blue sky
I feel like I am in my own little heaven
and nobody could touch me if they tried
here I can openly talk to Him
here I can see the beauty of the world
here I can feel like I am strong
even when I am just a small, fragile girl
Here where I lay
I can smell distant flowers
as the wind softly drifts
giving way to light dandelion showers
Here where I lay
I have no pain, anger, or fears
only the hopes, happiness, and dreams
that I wish will come true in the next few years
because with Him I am home
with Him I have a greater purpose
with Him I am loved
with a warmth that resembles the sun
and feel the sun kissing my face
no matter how terrible I feel
I'm happy to see the darkness erase
the green grass beneath my feet
cool and soft to the touch
the smell puts my mind at ease
I only ask for this much
I feel like I have a father
when I'm out all alone
when my own isn't there to comfort me
He's there to make me happy once more
when I lay on that grass
and look into the clear blue sky
I feel like I am in my own little heaven
and nobody could touch me if they tried
here I can openly talk to Him
here I can see the beauty of the world
here I can feel like I am strong
even when I am just a small, fragile girl
Here where I lay
I can smell distant flowers
as the wind softly drifts
giving way to light dandelion showers
Here where I lay
I have no pain, anger, or fears
only the hopes, happiness, and dreams
that I wish will come true in the next few years
because with Him I am home
with Him I have a greater purpose
with Him I am loved
with a warmth that resembles the sun
