Once Upon A Time (I Surrender)

This is a song I wrote with Ariel Lea. Click here to stream it, or download for free to iTunes. Then just click on “Once Upon A Time” in the podcast channel called Mind Melodies.

Here are the lyrics. Be blessed,

The Jester

Once upon a time

There lived a little girl

Who took a vow of loneliness

And was cast into this world.

 

Silently she prayed

As she walked

Falling into worlds,

Blindly searching for a home

All alone, this little girl.

 

Time continued on

And our girl began to grow,

Still walking, still searcing

For a home she’d never know.

 

The path was long

And she was strong

But her feet began to show

What happens when the search

Begins to wear upon your soles.

 

And as she walked

She prayed now louder than before,

God won’t you please, please lead me home

I can’t search anymore.

 

She heard nothing, not a sound;

The path was getting colder.

While she searched time had passed

And our little girl was not much older.

 

Years had gone, she walked much slower now,

She prayed with just a whisper.

I can’t search any longer;

My feel our done, God,

I surrender.
