Let Me In

I kept my weapon near
A sword made dull by fear
No good for cutting a path
I kept my shame in close
I was afraid to show
Something that wasn't good as gold

You say, Let me in to that place
Let me in to your space
Let me in to you

You feared the weight of sin
Would bruise my tender skin
Maybe your touch would cool my blood
But you told me late one night
Love put those fears to flight
For I saw a father in your eyes

I say, Let me in to that place
Let me in to your space
Let me in to you

You do not turn the earth
Nor determine my worth
I pray I never crown you as a god
I do not turn the earth
Nor determine your worth
I pray you never crown me as your god
