Bravery

Brave. I love songs about being brave. I want to be brave.

Being brave is hard. It takes more than courage and strength.



I just wanted to share this song. It's a recent discovery, and I listen to it almost every day. It soothes my soul. Look it up because her voice is just beautiful. But I especially love the lyrics, of course. Her prayer--it's just so perfect. I feel like I have a very similar prayer in my heart on a daily basis.

 And, in case you didn't know, daisies are my favorite flower. Perfect song? Yes.

Brave
She painted her ceiling baby blue
With fluffy white clouds
Just in case she needed
A way to get out.
And when the pain 
Was just too much to bear
She sent up a prayer:

Father on high
God of my light
Send me daisies 
That bloom all night
Come what may,
This I pray,
Lord, let me 
Be brave.

Sometimes I lay
Alone here in the dark
So afraid there's not
Quite enough faith in my heart.

Father on high
God of my light
Send me daisies 
That bloom all night
Come what may,
This I pray,
Lord, let me 
Be brave.

Be still my soul.
We might have a long way to go.

Father on high
God of my light
Send me daisies 
That bloom all night
Come what may,
This I pray,
Lord, let me 
Be brave.

Lord, let me
Be brave.

I have included a lot of music in my posts lately. That's because I LOVE music. It is one of my favorite forms of expression and healing. I hope the songs I share are as lovely to you as they are to me.
