From the recording You Break My Fall
We live in a cultural milieu where it's fashionable to be independent and completely self-reliant. This proud, pelagian attitude is at odds with our lived human experience and is not working out so well. The truth is: we are totally dependent on our Father's love. And this love is shared with us freely, on a moment to moment basis. We need but open our hearts to see this wondrous, existential reality regarding the truth of our being and how this is so generously manifest in our lives via our Father's loving providence.
Lyrics
You break my fall on the way down.
You place your heart right between me and the hard ground.
And when I call you’re always there.
Heaven knows I’ve found someone who really cares.
You’re with me when times are tough
Even if the going’s rough;
When the going's rough.
That’s the time when you are near,
When my heart is filled with fear,
You turn that fear into hope…
When you say:
“Don’t worry about tomorrow, it will take care of itself.”
You can beg, steal, or borrow
But you can never buy your own soul.
