The ways we make our ways...


Snow brings a clear headspace
Like a white canvas to paint
On in thoughts with God on love on life
On matters of the heart on these nights
While last turns before a retreat to the hut, only to rest
Living life and breathing with God like it’s my last breath

I make my way seeking out space for thought, this place I know is right
From plank to plank slicing through the snow and ice
Star after star appearing in the night sky
They say nothing but give off lot's of advice
They shine saying don't think just flow because it feels right
Because if she radiates light like us, it just might be worth the fight
I thought about him just playing it before I play it out
But then I wouldn’t learn what this life is about
I would rather invest my time anyways if it’s all for nothing
That’s what makes it, you see is trusting
Even with the possibility of lost love and lost time
It’s never wasted because it was never mine
It was worth spending if only to give and borrow each others sunshine


I look to the sky it always has something to say
Like an open book, or this open snow covered mountain range
They are alive with words of wisdom
Characteristics of God speaking out loud and full of vision
When we are in silent places
All the distractions of life it erases
That's when God's voice becomes a megaphone
You no longer feel alone
He becomes real to the touch
Like a real father in flesh and blood
He speaks to me about life and love
He reaches out to me from the heavens above
If only to say I love you
I’ll answer with I love you too
He’s always there every second
Every thought, dream, and word spoken, he’s paying attention
If I really stop to think, I’m just a guy
And love I men real love stands constant at my side
Lord be my every breath
My every step
Be in my work and in my rest
Help me remember to always give you my best
My love and my trust
For you are Love
God is Love
And Love is God
