Wasting

I am learning the taste of freedom, weightlessness under these chains.

You do not bind me here, simply working with my broken remains.

I feel like I haven't seen tasted felt for so long.

The freedom you offered, the love in your song.



But I'm learning to taste the aching, the aching in your heart.

How broken you must be when I'm falling apart.

Only to see me turn, only to feel me run

Navigate myself back to where I belong.



I'm learning, the wanting, the needing, the pain.

I'm learning its really not worth living this way.

There's more to all of it and i long to be consumed.

Relinquishing my strength, I give it all back to you.



You wont battle for my attention, I already have your love.

Tired of trying exhausting my spirit, what I have will never be enough.



And I'm learning to fail, learning to fall,

But really I have learned most of all.



You are faithful God, despite when I'm desperate, despite when I run.

And as I strive and fight trying to make new,

All I ever needed was your hands, pure and true.



Soul revival, fresh spirit, new touch.

I pray that the nothing I have to offer is more than enough.



And I am learning that your love is bigger than me.

Bigger than these hands, bigger than my dreams.

And my future I can't see, not even a step ahead of me.

But I know you are greater, and stronger, and more.

And I'm learning to stop fighting, unless it's you I'm fighting for
