I Stay Still

DM Stith
Have you ever said what you wrote in lead,
What you wrote in lead,
Would you call please,
Would you call please,
Would you count it out on your knees?
But you want more time for the other life to move on away from me,
Would you call please,
Would you call please,
Would you call please?
Kept up all night,
Oh holy, oh cursed light,
My body breaks, my mind renews,
But I stay still.
I lay, I am, I live and I die again,
You move along from year to year,
I stay still.
Oh lion, oh lamb,
Oh, giving, oh tortured hand,
Remember in your mirrored will,
I stay still.
But winter comes in a blizzard of change,
In a blizzard of change, change,
My tracks are light, my tracks are light,
But I feel it out on my knees.
But you want more time for the other life to move on away from me,
Still call please,
Would you call please,
Would you call please?
I lay, I am, I live and I die again,
You move along from year to year,
I stay still.
Oh lion, oh lamb,
Oh, giving, oh tortured hand,
Remember in your mirrored will,
I stay still.
