Sitting in my room
There is music playing
Movies running on a small screen
The night is cool
The night is quiet outside
As the moon shines into my room
My sheets are soft
My pillows softer
Four strong walls surround me
But …
Though I have everything
I feel alone
I also feel scared
Even though the music and the voices
Jump at me through the small screen
I still feel alone
But …
As I close my eyes
As I call your name
Suddenly I am lifted
Lifted from fear
Lifted from anxiety
To a place
Hard to describe
To a place that is peaceful
A place that is safe
A place of love
Lord, with you
I am safe
I am loved
I am safe and secure
