Don’t be scared to put it out there
Don’t be scared to speak
sometimes what you choose to make
is pure gold
Don’t be afraid to paint what you love
Don’t be afraid to create
some things are bigger than you ever knew
eternal beyond our lives
I say go
and keep going
go and keep going
murmur love, if that’s all you’ve got
I love the way you carve it
I love the way you write
I love the way you’ve made something
birthed yourself with such perfect phrasing
I say go
and keep going
go and keep going
murmur love, if that’s all you’ve got
And while you do
I’ll sing my praise
for you…

Beautiful. I felt this one as parental love for a child.

Oh thank you, That’s exactly what I had in mind; parent to child, teacher to student, master to apprentice, friend to tentative-friend.

The repeated stanza is perfect, I think. Good words to go by.

Haha, thanks Bree. Encouragement is key. Some people just need a little push into the sunlight and then they’ll bloom.
