Look For Me As You Go By


Hullo Abi,

Remember you are blessed.
Like that time your family all tumbled together to be together.
Or that hug; the kind that held till you relaxed and melted a bit.
Remember that you are loved and forgiven.
That you could never fear enough,
doubt enough,
be confused enough
to break the hold of that blessing.

your pride has no sway on the weight of glory.

This dark you are so keenly aware of...
it's unlite hope,
the strained pause before a clash of splendor.

Be patient,
be courageous,
be grateful.

There is no other response for the depth of love you breath within.





Hang my head low, so low.
Don't see me only as I am
but
see me how I long to be.
Shining like a flowering tree

under a gray Pennsylvania sky.
Look for me as you go by.
Hang my head low, so low.

Every burden shall be lifted.
Every stone upon your back slide into the sea.
It's me for you and you for me.

-the innocence mission
