Let me be a living statue Holding all that life does send Let me be a living statue Knowing when to brace or bend The stillness in the hurricane The eye within the spiralling storm A gauge of love's eternal promise Whispered through each dawning morn Let me be a living statue Stark against indifference Let all life move through me freely Joy and sorrow, pure, intense Let me know the faith that knows no bounds No meagre more my chosen sound The sound of exhultation Ever-upward countenance Though the jagged winds despair To ever rise above the sound So the human soul in rising up Still panics that we drown As you flowed through those before me Now I separate my rings I consider this the lily I accept all that this brings Facing fully to the wind Not turning from the hardest parts Let me be a living statue Fearless, through my pounding heart Let me be a living statue Holding all that life does send Let all life move through me freely Joy and sorrow, pure, intense Let my blessings simply be To know each moment blessing me Let me be a living statue A Pillar of Love's firmament. Let me be a living statue Holding all that life does send Let me be a living statue Knowing when to brace or bend Let my blessings simply be To know each moment blessing me And let me be a living statue Holding all that life does send
