I was a little cross
I was a little cold
I was a little lost
Dead to me truth be told
Dead to me truth be told
Dead to me truth is
In the light you're a miracle to behold
Truly
In the night it's a miracle to be held by you
What today can i make inside of my heart for you?
Bold and bright
I could fall asleep in your love
Sing to me mother's grace
Give to me mother's trust
I've never seen her face
But i think she looks like us
I think she looks like us
I think
I'm ashamed of the awful things i have done to you
What today can i make inside of my heart for you?
In the sweetest and deepest part of my soul
You are
Bold and bright
I could fall asleep in your love
It's happening
I'm Alive
I am not so gone as i thought
Oh God
I am loved
I am learning how to receive Loving
Are you real?
Are you something out of a dream from me?
Bold and bright
I could fall asleep in your love
In the light you're a miracle to behold
Truly
In the night it's a miracle to be held by you
What today can i make inside of my heart to you?
Bold and bright
I could fall asleep in your love
It's happening

This song is an ode to my grandmother. We never met—she passed away when my mother was young. Her deep sense of faith and spirituality permeates my family in a really lovely way. I feel I am rooted in her heart, and vice versa.
