James Barbour Secret Soul song lyrics

JANE (ROCHESTER)

What can I do now, my precious Lord?

His dark love would be my best reward

I know I should not dare to go

Deeper in his madness

But it's like a field I must run through

No one's words will make me love him less

How much can I stand, I dare not guess

The secret voice that speaks to me

Tells me he's in danger

Looking to the dust for tenderness

Deep in my secret soul

I stand alone

The purpose of why I'm here

Is still unknown

And I can't help but sense

The darkness in his mind

But I keep looking for his goodness

Afraid of what I'll find

My heart moves through his unquiet sea

I pray a wave will come and carry me

Closer to his troubled tide

Waters of his fury

But how can I swim this great divide?

Deep in my secret soul (Her spring of life)

I cry his tears (Draws me near)

I weather his angry voice (Her gentle voice)

I feel his fears (I hold dear)

His life has infected every wound (Her life has infected every wound)

And every pore (And every pore)

I feel his mystery possess me (I feel her mystery possess me)

And I pray that mercy's hand (And I pray that mercy's hand)

Will bless me (Will bless me)

Deep in his secret soul (Deep in my secret soul)

His past is cursed (I stand alone)

I summon my deepest will

To still his thirst (I will not atone)

God give me the strength to go (And I will not)

The journey I take must first begin (ever let her)

(Deep within)

Deep within my secret soul (my secret soul)
