Sparks

In the cool of the morning
I croon to you warning
of arms that would hold you 
till dark 

as up we lay asking 
at God's kindness basking 
at those sparks in a dark 
lonely sky

We're but sparks in a dark lonely sky 
just sparks in a dark lonely sky 
I would ever-be never without you my love
my spark in a dark lonely life.  

Why we two together
with hands gently tethered
have grace in such generous
supply...

but sparks rose a flame
to a fire never tamed
and the whole world's ablaze
with our light


I would ever-be never without you, my love,
my spark in this dark, lonely life.
