From the recording Safe Place
Lyrics
THIS UNION
(words and music by Eilidh Patterson)
Haunted by some things that I did
Living life divided from You, from You
Daunted by my own performance
I could not conform to the truth, the truth
CHORUS:
But You keep me grounded down in
This earth that You made
Roots go so deep You keep me
So that I cannot escape
I’m tangled up so I can’t tell where I end or You begin
Here in this union of God and fragile human
Spinning like a small tornado
I finally had to let go of me, of me
Falling into the great unknown
How could I have not known or believed, believed?
That You keep me grounded down in
This earth that You made
Roots go so deep You keep me
So that I cannot escape
I’m tangled up so I can’t tell where I end or You begin
Here in this union of God and fragile human
You are my life, the air I breathe
It’s through Your eyes that I see
CHORUS
