More Than Words--Lyrics

By Lance Livesay (1963-2005)

I知 more than my words, and I知 more than my deeds. I知 more than my hist池y, and I知 more than my needs. I知 more than my thinking, and I知 more than my grief. I知 more than my doubting, and I知 more than my belief.

And I知 thankful for rememb池ing who I am and what I致e learned. I致e been given gifts of Spirit, none of which I致e ever earned. For these gifts are given freely as I turn toward the sun, As I turn away from darkness, and open to the wonders of love.

I知 more than the future and I知 more than the past. I知 more than books or knowledge and I知 more than circumstance. I知 more than I know and I知 more than what I see. I知 more than what happens in life痴 circ値ing mystery.

And I知 thankful for rememb池ing who I am and what I know. I am made of flesh and spirit with a million years to grow. And I知 thankful for forgiveness, for the peace that fills my heart. And I知 thankful for the beauty, and music and the art Of letting go.

I知 more than my youth, and I知 more than my years. I知 more than my body and I知 more than my tears. I知 more than my work and I知 more than my fear. I知 more than the money that I壇 like to make this year.

It won稚 buy me what's important like the laughter of my friends. It won't buy me piece of mind or gifts that never have an end, Like words of love. We are thankful for rememb池ing who we are and what we know. We are made of flesh and Spirit with a million years to grow. Grow into love.
