Life is a song we must sing with our days
A poem with meaning more than words can say
A painting with colors no rainbow can tell
A lyric that rhymes either heaven or hell
We are living letters that doubt desecrates
We've the notes of the song of the chorus of faith
God shapes every second of our little lives
And minds every minute as the universe waits by
The pain and the longing
The joy and the moments of light
Are the rhythm and rhyme
The free verse of the poem of life
So look in the mirror and pray for the grace
TO TEAR OFF THE MASK,
SEE THE ART OF YOUR FACE
Open your earlids to hear the sweet song
Of each moment that passes and pray to prolong
Your time in the ball of
THE DANCE OF YOUR DAYS
Your canvas of colors
Of moments ablaze
With all the is holy
With the joy and the strife
With the rhythm and rhyme of the poem of your life
With the rhythm and rhyme of the poem of your life.
I find all of Michael Card's work very inspired, very inspiring, very meaningful and very scriptural. These lyrics, of course, are much more powerful WITH the music.
If you're interested you'll find this song on his album Poiema
