I am a little flower, planted kindly by the stream

Where light gives life to moments felt

Beneath my soft petals, golden pink

The gentle flow of shared breath,

The water at my side

The flowing ever going

Towards the sun high in love’s sky

 

Turn my face towards the sun,

Like the bold and beautiful yellow-framed one

So I may forget my shame and reflect the name

Of your highest majesty, the royal One who planted me

Bathe me in glorious sunlight, drown me in holy waters

That cleanse and remove every debris, the sorrows of past days

Fluttering away, away, gone into the breeze

 

And sing, my soul! The chorus of angels

The advancing notes of victory

A freedom song, a jolly one

The other flowers outstretch their petals

Beyond the shade, into the sun

To receive, like me

The glorious riches of being called “free”
