Savior

My shepard, will you come tend your sheep
Father, will you take my cares to keep
Can you hold my heart, and sing me to sleep
These worries,
That I'm not doing enough
The heartache that I've been losing your touch

My savior, will you come save me tonight
Defender, will you defend your treasure lost in darkness's light
Can you wipe my eyes, and tell me it's you who wins the fight

I'm tired, of losing sight of you
I'm burdened, by weights balanced in the untrue
I'm weary, of telling myself what to do

Lover, will you love your child where he's at
Brother, will you protect me from life's attacks
I'm defenseless, I'm weak where I stand

Jesus, write my symphony
Sing songs of love, despite my inconsistencies
Tell me that you've thought of me all day
Even though I let cares of this world get in my love's way

Tell me, that I'm not what you need,
That it's purely love, and only desire that sent you to the tree
You don't need me, yet you wanted me to be free
