Sometimes

"Sometimes the wind in my eyes
Takes me past all my little white lies
And the sweet sound of the voice of the truth
Speaks in bitter words of decisions of youth

Shower me with love
Don't let me forget what I came here for
Let the sun shine from above
Don't let me lose my way
No more

Starlight
The hands of the sky
Lift me over my miniature life

Shower me with love
Don't let me forget what I came here for
Let the sun shine from above
Don't let me lose my way
No more

Wash me
In the waves of Your ocean of mercy
And when my eyes open, enfold me
In the light of faith dawning and hold me

Shower me with love
Don't let me forget what I came here for
Let the sun shine from above
Don't let me lose my way
No more"


So this is an old favorite recorded again on David Hunt's new Live at Erica's CD. I like this song. Especially last night and tonight. There's something that's especially moving about live music when there is a small audience... it's like the music is there just for you... why do we make ourselves listen to music that makes us sad, but it's addicting. We want to feel that sadness to still have a connection to that memory. To make sure it's still there, that it's not going even though the time is farther and farther away ("Service" does it... every time).
I need to remember what I came here for, I still don't think I've figured it out. But last night was definitely confirmation. I need to go to sleep, but the middle of the night is so peaceful. I don't feel guilty for not doing work. I can think, I can listen to music and be comforted by things and be hopeful about things and there just seem to be so many more possibilities at night. That seems backwards, but that's what I think.
So, basically I love the new David Hunt CD, so if you want it, let me know. It has Sharpie art and fun tracks and even a secret track, hee hee :). And amazing guitar playing.
And the Farmer's Market today was lovely. It was fun to be able to show them around my town, now that is my town. My first house guest, my first tour guide opportunity, and devotions again tomorrow morning at my house. I love weekly devotions. Okay, I must sleep so I can wake up to do laundry and homework before prayers that precede more homework.
