MY LEAF

I have a heart thats wounded
beaten down,battered and torn
a life full of confusion and fear
to many people have I mourned

Like the leaf caught in the wind
being held prisioner by it's strength
growing weaker everyday
becoming more invisible and faint

I come from a beautiful tree
detached by the devil's hand
fell prey to his treachery
now I am aimlessly floating through this land

Child can you hear me
as you float past heaven's door
the devil's wind is strong
but My Power holds much more

The Wind that comes from Heaven
is always gentle,warm and sweet
it carries my Holiness to you
so you can be full and complete

The beautiful tree that gave you life
still lives inside of you
cry out Jesus save me
let me be the wind that carries you through

Life is not easy
but in Me there is peace
it's all there for the asking
to bring you sweet release

JESUS save me I cried out loud
as my dark tattered leaf fell to the ground
in one breath God raised me up
and He swirled my New Leaf around

Yellow and red in brightness
not a rip or tear to be found
God's heavenly wind carries me now
keeping me safe and sound

We all in one way or another at times
are pulled away from our beautiful tree
so remember the story of My Leaf
and how God's holy wind
will always save you and me
