Saw some incredibly beautiful Roses the other day…reminded me of this song from my Eyes On The Horizon CD.
When You Walk Through Roses | 2/9/2004 | Song # 336
When you walk through roses
Do you feel the thorns
Or do you see the blossoms
In spite of what you’ve torn?
Can you catch a glimpse of heaven
In a drop of dew?
Or your reflection
In the people around you?
Refrain:
We get what we focus on
So focus in on what you want
Focus in on me, focusing my love on you…
If you cried a river
Would it feel much better
Than if you laughed the ocean
And then chose to dive right in?
When you hear a jazz band
Do you hear the bass or the horns?
And if somebody asked you
Could you tell them why you were born?
Refrain:
If I wrapped my arms around you
Would you feel constrained
Or would you feel connected
And choose freely to remain?
If I then released you
And then danced away
Would you chose to feel abandoned
Or would you see it as a chance to play?
From my Eyes On The Horizon CD.
