FORGOTTEN SONG
Will you call me to your place
Palace of poets where we're safe
From a world of war and rage
Would you fall with me to the knees
Would you pray with me that we both sleep
Surrounded
By the Truths so Epic they will heal
Can you feel this?
We're held inside this scene tonite
By the weight of a Gravity all too real
And the incense of burning motions
We can't fight
Inside the pounding of the rain
Within the heartbeat of the flame
Will you be the one?
To maybe play my Forgotten Song?
CHORUS:
Will you play my forgotten song?
Will you call the voice I've lost
Are you from the promised land
You hold the water in those hands
I'll show you all I am
Just to drink it from your palm
Will you be the one
Will you play my forgotten song?
Darling,
Set me free to see
All the reasons why I bleed
Chalk your thoughts upon
The walls around my heart
You've given me a reason to believe
I am,
Your wounded soldier here tonite
So won't you stitch my soul up tight
Let me rest here for a while
Within the pyre of your eyes
(Like a phoenix)
After your love I'll rise refined
-Something larger than I've learned of
-Somebody bigger than I was born from
-Someone nobler than I have been
-You're a dream sweeter than I let in
CHORUS:
Will you play my Forgotten Song
Will you call the voice I've lost
Are you the vision in starlit skin
Are you the vessel in satin sail
Here to set this anchored soul on out?
After Adam and Eve have lost their leaves
After we've both eaten from the tree
Seen the secrets time will free
Will our wounds no longer bleed
I've seen you, but will you still-believe in me?
Will you be the one?
Will you play my Forgotten Song?
Prayer for Forgotten Song
Creator of Intimacy
We ask that you step into our Marriages
We ask that you reverse the Curse of Leaving Eden
We ask that you remove these Fig Leaves between our selfish selves and our Beloved
We ask for a big love, a brave love, a bold love, and a Holy Love
A love that is Kadosh, set-apart, something unlike the world East of Eden has ever Known
We ask for Faith where there was Fear
We ask for New and Burning Love where there was Lukewarm Affection and Worn out Lust
We ask that the Cherubim Guard our Bedrooms from the Lies that we have been Sold about our sewn up selves and our Beloved
We ask that we not forget the Healing was Real and Whole
When the Stitches come between our Souls
We ask for Olive Branches where the Fig Leaves once made us Alone
“Then the eyes of both of them were opened and they knew that they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made for themselves loin-coverings.” Genesis 3:7
