COME JOIN ME

Yes it’s true I look different
I’ve done all the things I wasn’t supposed to

My heart has never been so alive
I’ve come to realize this is what my Maker had in mind

No I don’t fit the mold yes I’m living on the edge
Call me a hippie call me wild
Say I’ve jumped ship, say I’ve gone off the deep end

Say what you will and think what you won’t
Label me and grieve for what you do not see...

But if you wish to know life, listen and watch with open heart for one moment
Before you close the door with me on the other side take a deeper look

You will see a heart that’s free,
You will see a heart that knows love greater than even imagined
You will see Joy, you will see Peace, you will see Love, you will see hope, growing strong made of a substance that is perfect and strong.

Close the door if you feel you must,
I won’t be held back I will continue to run in the fields of wild flowers,
The green grass will stain my pleased bare feet.
The sun will kiss my cheeks and I will live in bliss.

The simplicity of freedom and Grace with be where I live
Soaking up all goodness of Joy and peace.

If you ever wish to leave behind the world of guilt, comfort, and fear I’ll leave my door open.
But know this... to join me in this life will cost you all you hold, for to be held by the Maker of Life means you loose your strength to hold your own.

I will wait for you in the wild fields of beauty living every moment an adventure
If it’s many years before you come to find me I will be old and maybe gray
But you’ll know it’s me because the lines in my face will be a smile and my feet will still be stained.
I dare say by that time I may even be more lovely for all the years of soaking up Joy and Grace.

Think carefully friend I wish you to know life.....
Come join me on the other side....
