DUST AND DIRT

GLORIOUS BEGINNINGS ALWAYS STARTING FROM DIRT
THE SIMPLE IMAGINING WHAT COULD BE
AND THEN MAKING A RUN FOR IT
LEAVING WHAT WEIGHS THEM DOWN LYING IN THE DUST

CLOSING OF THE EYES LAYING DOWN TO REST
LETTING GO OF ALL WE THINK WE KNOW
TAKING A BREAK FROM THE MANY BURDENS
THAT CHOKE OUT OUR HEART'S DESIRE TO GROW

GOING ON A TREASURE HUNT ONLY TO FIND
THAT WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR HAS BEEN THERE ALL ALONG
THE PICTURE, THE WORDS, THE SONG
THE FREEDOM TO BE FREE... TO BE THE REAL ME...

DUSTY DIRTY RUGGED GIRL DIGGING IN THE EARTH
TELLING OTHERS ENCOURAGING TIMELY WORDS
THAT CHANGE LIVES AND BRINGS LIFE AND HEAL HURTS
BUILDING UP THE WEAK AND REMINDING THEM OF THEIR TRUE WORTH.
