Jungle

from Songs 2020 by Derek Spaldo

lyrics

God give me courage to show you
Love though there's tears in my eyes
It's been a pleasure to know you
All of the days of my life

Lord lift me up to the heavens
Take me away from the pain
Shine in your glory among us
Light in the glow of your flame

You love like a child
Pure and kind and fair
You're not made for this world, I know
It's a jungle out there

I found you down in the stairway
Hiding away from it all
Lost like a lamb from her mother
Healing a bruise from a fall

Why did we have to forget
That you were a child once like me?
Open-armed love for a stranger
No matter the race or the creed

But you somehow know me better
Than the prescribed image of me
You will always be there
Oh, indefinitely

You love like a child
Pure and kind and fair
You're not made for this world, I know
It's a jungle out there
