I’m walking down, corner to corner and I can’t see
Searching around and I don’t know where to be.
I see a light and I follow it.
I see a light and I follow it.
I hear talks and laughter and love.
I feel warmth and happiness and fear.
I was walking corner to corner once
And I now I can’t leave this corner.
With this book given to me, I
Feel my feet sticking here.
Excitment, joy and wonder cross my mind.
Word by word is what I read
Each word by word makes me realize its all one word.
I grab, I run, I fear.
Change, life, everything is changing.
I try moving from this corner and yet I still have
your Word.
I try going back to different corners but it’s not the same
It’s different now.
I hear about you and
It’s different now
I write to you and
It’s different now
I speak about you and
It’s different now
I talk to you and
It’s different now
I pray to you and
And it’s different now

With you Father, everything is made new.
I feel this constant warmth that your servant Autumn calls Joy.
Many now look at me confused
Father, how do I explain this?
I feel different but how do I explain?
God, you are love and that’s what I will show.
God, you are love and that’s what I will show.
