A Lover's Lullaby


Oh and dream, Lover dream
The dreams that are lost in you
Don’t be afraid to let yourself go
Oh and see, Lover see
The wonder that lives in you
Open your eyes, it is there to behold
And know that your whispers for love have been heard
By a heart that is gentle and kind
You are the one He is seeking to find

Oh and live, Lover live
In the freedom His love gives you
Don’t bare the marks of the slave-driver’s hands
Oh and give, Lover give
The gifts He has given you
Recklessly throw all your cares to the wind
And know that your whispers for love have been heard
By a heart that is gentle and kind
You are the one He is seeking to find

Oh and hear, Lover hear
The lyric He’s written you
As freely you dance to the rhythms of grace
Oh and rest, Lover rest
The price has been paid for you
Rejoice! Let the dancing begin

i just found this song tonight and decided to google it and found your page..... saw also that you have Anne Jackson's blog on your page. I am one of the worship leaders at Cross Point in Nashville. I love that you write. It is very refreshing to see young people have a voice and not be afraid to use it!
