Susan Ashton - Summer Solstice lyrics

It must have been the summer solstice When I first gave my heart to You The first day of a brand new season In a fevered pa**ion for Your simple truth It was the longest I'd ever felt for anything And it gave my soul a song to sing It must have been my adolescence That pulled me from my childlike faith But what I thought to be maturity Was just neglect that I tried to vindicate And I went drifting on the wind like the autumn leaves But when I fell I landed on my knees So can You throw Your arms around me and walk me home I've wandered off way too far for way too long And standing broken in this wilderness of shame I have found my only strength is in your name Oh, Father please can You undo what I've done And get me back to square one I never saw that blizzard coming Just woke up and ice was on the ground And there were times this beating heart of pride Was so stubborn it refused to make a sound But now I'm feeling so out of my element Frozen in the winter of my discontent So can You throw Your arms around me and walk me home I've wandered off way too far for way too long And standing broken in this wilderness of shame I have found my only strength is in your name Oh, Father please can You undo what I've done And get me back to square one And with the spring comes the thaw Melting my heart reviving all It comes full circle and then It's summer solstice again So can You throw Your arms around me and walk me home I've wandered off way too far for way too long And standing broken in this wilderness of shame I have found my only strength is in your name Oh, Father please can You undo what I've done And get me back to square one Back to the summer solstice Take me back I wanna go back...
