Windswept

Windswept

How far the wind has carried me
How far it's whims have blown
Held aloft for so long now
The trackless miles flown
Swept along across the waves
A storm tossed sea of tears
Flung to the depths so far unseen
A traveler for so many years
But never would I take back
The decision made that day
When stepping from the windswept cliffs
To abandon all,
Free at last,
You carried me away


"So don't be so surprised when I tell you that you have to be 'born from above'—out of this world, so to speak. You know well enough how the wind blows this way and that. You hear it rustling through the trees, but you have no idea where it comes from or where it's headed next. That's the way it is with everyone 'born from above' by the wind of God, the Spirit of God." - John 3:8 (The Message)
