Rise in Love

from See Those Landing Lights by Divine Weeks

lyrics

All my life I’ve been falling trying to fill father-shaped holes
Making lovers into mothers. It was all just fool’s gold.
I was born on the other side of grace. Couldn’t reach the stars above.
She told me I could get off the cross: “You don’t need to be a martyr to get love.”

ch. All those voices in my head

Tell them all, go haunt another.
We looked as far as we can see
All the lights were turning green
So we danced in the fields of light above.
We’re not falling – We Rise in Love.

I bowed down to surrender. Won’t you make me complete?
She said, “I love what you are that I am not. Now get up off your knees.”
And the world opened up to us, and everything we’ve ever dreamed
And all those stars we wished upon were thrown at our feet.

ch.

Bridge: We go higher and higher…and reach the stars above. (2)
She said, “I can’t save you. I don’t want your soul.
I’m not your missing half. I want you to stay whole.”

ch. (repeated)
