All I Ever

I’ve stretched out my thoughts in many ways
Without any ideas and no direction provided
I gave without taking or giving any demands
All I ever asked for was love.
(pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer.
(instrumental)
Nothing that I’ve done through other people’s hands
Was without cost to myself and my esteem
I swallowed the bitterness of being alone
All I ever wished for was love.
(pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer.
(instrumental)
By taking ownership of nothing I held sway
Guided by the light from within my soul
Chasing dreams of love trying to become whole
All I ever hoped for was love.
(pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer.
(instrumental)
Life’s precious to me and your halls sacred
The principals of equality and unity are required
For peace to flourish and reign between perspectives
All I ever dreamed about was love.
(pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer.
(instrumental)
Lives are the coins that are sadly sacrificed
When the people forget to cherish each other
Building walls out of hate collapse in time
All I ever worked for was love.
(pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer.
(instrumental)
Circles without any end travelled in constant repetition
Bring death to all in our time eventually
Regardless of what positions they hold in life
All I ever gave for was love.
(pause) Father who’s truly everywhere, hear my humble prayer.
(instrumental)
Allow for clarity of mind to overcome slavery
Allow for acts of kindness and true forgiveness
To flourish, healing our past wrongs between us
All I ever tried for was love.
(pause) Father in your name with love, I ask for the above.

Amen.
