Songs of Ascent (Part I)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When mercy comes to me as soft as the sky
And faith like a strong arm around me lies
And life is beginning like springtime in flower
My soul is awakened with truth to astound me
An emptiness for You to fill
My soul, a cavern for Your sea
And You are the flowering bough of creation
From You cascades music like a million stars
And here in the purest light of the heavens
Mysteries revealing in songs that surround me
An emptiness for You to fill
My soul, a cavern for Your sea
An emptiness for You to fill
My soul, a cavern for Your sea
An emptiness for You to fill
My soul, a cavern for Your sea
