January 19th, 2012-You Reach for Me...

"You is kind. You is smart. You is important."-Aibileen Clark, The Help

Reach, Peter Furler

You hold the weight of the world
Still I don't slip through your hands
Your love is bigger
Than just an ocean built by man
I fall again and again,
But you whisper, "You're still mine"
You feel the pain of the world,
But you never push mine aside

CHORUS
And You reach for me
With a love that quiets all my fears
And You reach for me
Like a Father wipes away the tears

So many people in this world,
But I hear You calling out my name
You reach for me
Now I'm never gonna be the same


You know all of my fears
There's nothing Your eyes can't see
When I tried to give up,
Lord, you never gave up on me
I give You all of my hopes and dreams,
I lay them down
Of all the place I've looked,
You're the one truth I have found

You hold the weight of the world,
Still I don't slip through Your hands
You put the stars in the sky
You know every grain of sand

But You reach for me
With a love that quiets all my fears
And You reach for me,
Like a Father wipes away the tears

So many people in this world,
But I hear You calling out my name
You reach for me
Now I'm never gonna be the same

You reach for me

For me
