Analysis of I follow your love

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



Dear God
I will follow you My God
Until I fall
And ask you to carry me
Until I can follow you once more
As this new wheel spins again to a close
Where it ends
Only you and your angels know
Grant me the wheel
That will carry my soul
To offer you more love than my body can know
Refresh my mind with the clarity of your air
As my heart hopes are locked in a stare
And you look beyond me to the outersphere
To see where I went wrong
And where I showed care
Remember how much I love you
If only in a moment of that which is you.
Amen
