Let me sing my life:
no problem is so grim
that it can mute my song of confidence and trust
in God's unfailing goodness.
Let me dance my life:
no challenge is so heavy
it can shrink my heart's advance
into graceless plodding
and keep me from soaring, inspired.
With God-reliant, fearless David
I run to meet my Goliaths.
With shepherds, watchful through the night
I rejoice to see the dawn of light.
With the lame man at the Beautiful Gate
I leap to claim my freedom.
I dare to celebrate
what I unquenchably know.
