How did you find me?
I mean I was the perfect hider
I made my bed in the shadows, the darkness my best friend
I never made a peep, I covered my tracks
I burnt every piece of evidence
No fingerprints, no DNA, no trace.
So how did I get here, naked and exposed?
My hands bound by stocks, my head facing the ridicule of the public.
I did not ask for this
I didn't fill out a permission slip to take a trip to the village of persecution
But for some reason, I'm not ashamed,
I have no fear, I couldn't care less
Why?
How could this be?
In the midst of all this where inside of me is this river of serenity coming from.
It's almost as though I found freedom the very second I became bound by the willing frame of the world.
Judgement comes pain from head to toe yet peace abides.
I don't understand, I'll never understand, maybe I was never meant to.
What undeniable truth remain, it was you.
The man that found me that pulled me out of my isolation, my niche in the night.
You showed me the comfort I found was a lie, you showed me how to tear down my walls and live carefully as a child, you've held my hands through the persecution, you were the eye in every storm, it was you, it was always you
So I take this undeserved peace, put it in my pocket for safe keeping and only one visible option remains, one hundred percent of everything that makes me belongs to you.
Every atom, every molecule, every breath, every emotion, action, song, every fiber of my being is yours, I owe you
You died for me right
The very least I can do is live for you, my hero, my Shepherd, my Father
So I take my life that you deserve credit for, box it up, wrap it as the perfect Christmas present top it off with a sparkling ribbon and gently place it at your feet, if you ask me for this...
I'm yours
