Only You


Only You
Only You know what the day is to bring.
Only You know how my heart longs to sing.
Only You know the tears I've cried.
Only You know the times I've lied.

Will You change my heart, will You heal my soul.
Renew my spirit - Only You know.

Help me see when my eyes are blind.
Help me truly think with my mind.
Help my voice to speak Your words.
Help my desire to be for more that this verse.


Will You change my heart, will You heal my soul.
Renew my spirit - Only You know.
Splintered, broken, uncaring and weak -
repair everything I've hidden from what others eyes see.


You will change my heart, You will heal my soul.
You will renew my spirit - that I know.


PS. This is a lyric I came across when sorting though my old notebooks today. Let me know what you think. I'll be working on the music next!

St. Brigid Blessings on the Threshold

In preparation for St. Brigid’s day, I consider the blessings that are with us on the threshold.  What are the blessings, neither at the beginning or end, but in the middle.  In transitional spaces that take up most of our days? I think that the threshold can be a space of healing. An opportunity to see things in a new way. A river that takes us to new places of grace. May you feel the presence of love in your thresholds. May it flow from all our beginnings through to each end. May the space of threshold be a balm like lavender, healing our battle wounds. May we find healing in the inbetween. Healing lives on the threshold. #blessings #stbrigid #taralamontart
