Let Grow

This is actually a song I wrote in the summer of 2007 - but I feel like posting it now. :)

So easy just to be
Content to always just be me
And just to say,
"I've always been, will always be that way."
But I'm content with less than your perfected plan
Content to be much smaller than your love and life demand

I'm learning to let grow
Dive into a brand-new life
I need to get to know
Leave my dreaming daze behind
I need to chase my dreams and live
For you, for me, I need to give
Let my smallness go
And let you grow...

So hard to be this way
Aching to change, but longing to stay
I need to see
How strange will this change be for me?
But I've already found that your unfolding plan
Can make much more of me than I yet can understand

I'm learning to let grow
Dive into a brand-new life
I need to get to know
Leave my dreaming daze behind
I need to chase my dreams and live
For you, for me, I need to give
Let my smallness go
And let you grow...

However I've fallen, if you say to fly
I'll follow the call and I'll take to the sky

So easy to forget
That I may be small, and yet
To limit you
Would be more than my limits can do
To bind you to my poor inadequacy
Is limiting you in unlimiting me

I'm learning to let grow
Dive into a brand-new life
I need to get to know
Leave my dreaming daze behind
I need to chase my dreams and live
For you, for me, I need to give
Let my smallness go
And let you grow...
